I’ve often wondered about the sensitivity to disclosing prices that seems to accompany high-end instruments.
The comments in the recent Moore-Bettah thread have finally prompted me to ask.
Why the “secrecy”?
I understand anonymity; as not everyone wants the rest of the world to know their business or their possessions. (On the contrary, some freely list their collections.)
But a blind price?
Please enlighten me.
For the record, I don’t give a tinker’s dam about someone or a dealer flipping an instrument for a profit. That’s not mine to judge ... not to mention that some make their living doing just that everyday.
My interest is in PRICE disclosure “secrecy.”
This may belong in different forum, but I put it here for easy reference to the Moore-Bettah thread that is here.
