Yep, I agree. I can't bash it too much though because I paid $40.00 for one of these:

I use custom guitar picks as my "business card." The pick has a pen/ink drawing of me on one side and my phone number and email address on the other.
I did not pay much for each individual pick - maybe 0.70 each. crow

Dunlop picks also has custom options (http://www.jimdunlop.com/index.php?page=products/picks&cat=6). A few options on the
page depending on the type of pick you want.

Wonder if the price is driven up by Martin fans or Felix fans...
I suspect the latter!

I would lean towards the latter as well. Maybe that or pick collectors. There are a lot of pick collectors out there.

Maybe the guy who was trying to sell his D-28 for $130,000 on here a few months ago would be interested.

I buy picks in 12-packs. Let's see, erm... I make that (bear with me)... just seven hundred and ninety two $s a pack!

Perhaps he should just slap a picture of a goofy laughing cat on the top. That has to make it worth 250K easy.... "There's a sucker born every minute" P.T. Barnum. |

The password is "Glenmorangie"..... and I'll take up your offer of 50% off what you paid for them.
