My theory is that people are looking no further than the solid gold cases that look so massive in the photos and falling victim to the gold bug.

Almost picked that one up, Fred. But with another 178 already coming, I had to let it go. Actually moving one of mine out to make room for another piece I'm hoping for this week.

Still shocking that junk piece made it over $1K!! Bizarre what people do sometimes.
