Interesting is right! To think people are paying those prices...I think the ones I've seen on this site are much better and the shine on them can knock your vision out!

In my opinion, artsy crapsy. I am sure he has a following, probably yuppies, or programmers. That I do not like the style, does not lead me to appreciate the mechanics of his joinery. He seems though to be using wax wire and flaming it to cast with. You know, I bet he gets his price. The mansion has many rooms, I hope I am way out by the North 40.

I always think "sure he's asking those prices...but is anyone buying?". It's like anyone can call themselves an artist...but when it comes down to it...does anyone else agree?

WOW those prices that work ah man we need to rethink this hobby- Hey if some one is willing to pay that- well more power to em- I am starting to amass some necklaces to start up a little side business (mainly when I go camping) NO way I would ever charge those kind of figures- I just figure out what it cost (material wise) and what my time is worth and charge what will make me some spending money- Seems like this guy has some pretty high opions of what his time is worth!

Sheesh! Banjo's Antelope Jasper and Cher's Brazilian Agate put everything on his site to shame! Even I can make a better bail.
METAPHYSICAL + NEW AGE + CHAKRA = RIP OFF! S
Exactly what I thought as soon as I got a gander at those prices!

goddess butterscotch bitch she who MUST be obeyed for $1333.33 and the green man sceptor for $425 - whoever orders that combo will be dangerous - shouting orders and whacking folks with a piece of driftwood and a feather. i want something sturdier than driftwood to whack folks with if i spend $1700 to be the ultimate bitch. wonder how many whacks are needed to get the men in the white coats to disappear after they show up. every morning when you step out of bed shout "i am the goddess butterscotch bitch". rush to the mirror and shout it again but louder. continue this throughout the day and every day thereafter. whenever the need arises such as in walmart when someone breaks line in front of you shout it again and act accordingly. llana send me some of that texas driftwood and some turkey feathers! ;D kim
