Subj: [kl] Re: Aged Reed Return on Investment

Lets see, if the reeds were 20 years old, what was the price of a box X 3 in
1979 or therabouts and what was the (then) buyer's return on investment for
a sale at $10.33 per box of 1999. (notwithstanding that the buyer had the
piece of mind of knowing he had plenty of high qualifty reeds in storage)

Problem here is List price vs. Street price in Music Stores vs. Street price
in Catalogue Stores --- if there were any WW&BW;s in 1979.
Comparing to VanDoren regulars today @-----. $18-24 (for retail
stores which have "Club") v. $11.50 - 13. My guess is you wouldn't do this
for a living.

Cindy, is there a source for Aged Moree Reeds?
