Price watch (69)

There are currently three Ibanez TOD10N in the after-market which are priced above the retail listing ($999). No doubt, the TOD10 is a popular, fast-selling model but stock will be replenished time & again. It's worth waiting, yes?

Recently, we've seen a Mexican Fender crossing the $2K mark, this Vintera Jaguar comes close - $1,999. In the after-market, it's listed for $1.5K as seen above - would you fork our that much money for a used Mexican Fender? I have nothing against Mexican Fenders, majority of them are well made but price means everything.

I reserve no apologies in saying this is trash. A dilapidated bag with missing handles... just because it bears the Taylor name, it somehow replicates the relic philosophy of Fender & Gibson?
