flyfisher Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Funny thing this memorabilia business. Does the mere fact that Pino once played a particular bass [u]really[/u] add £12,000 to its value? I guess that's a rhetorical question (assuming it sells for that price of course), but I'm fascinated by the thought process that goes through someone's mind when buying things like this. And let's face it, it really is all in the mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanAxe Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hmmm... New King's Road are somewhat 'speculative' in their pricing, but should still fetch a good sum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
