No offense taken at all, believe me. The seas are full of bottom feeders these days, and it's hard to gauge the "right" price on some of these really nice pieces. 100% agreed with your sentiment of "all it takes is one", though.
Points taken on Axe's thread....I've ended up with two guitars and two amps that I wasn't even looking for in the past year because the asking prices were so low. With something like the Clapton cut, it would take some stamina to hang in there for the right price. That's all I was getting at.
Congrats on that new Firebird as well. You're a sick man.
