your quite right, you are entitled to yor own opinion, but is this internet talk or would you say that to the persons face.
I get the same reaction to my work frequently and usually i just mark it up to ignorance and not mine. I know where my market is and it is more than likely within 1/4 of 1%. the more tactful will say I can't afford that , it is not within my budget, it is not what I am looking for and that is the way the world is made up. every so often though some one reaches in their pocket and makes my day. then you get these ones, "what a rip off", "not worth it", "too much money" and you know it is a different class of person talking.
there a lot of people that make specialized stuff, limited in production or 1 of a kind. it cost more to make.
I would imagine that he has a limited market for those handles.

Wow, Ron. If I didn't know better, I might think you just called me ignorant, poor, uncouth, and low class all in the same paragraph. My opinion about some door handles does not give you the right to make spiteful personal comments toward me or anyone else on this forum. It seems to me that you would do well to take some of your own advice about tactfulness.
And though I should not indulge you by addressing your snarky comments, I never implied I could not afford anything at all. I simply meant a pair of late 90's Boyd Coddington looking billet handles are not worth $300 to me, and provided an example for cost comparison. If that's your thing, then by all means go get you a pallet load of 'em.
One of the main draws for me to this forum, besides the mountains of available info, is how friendly and cool everybody has been. I've never had a cross word with anyone on here until today. Just to clarify, I do not "internet talk" as you have implied, and have never posted anything on here that was offensive or that I would not say directly to anyone's face. If you ever make it down to Missouri I'd be glad to demonstrate in person.
Pissing match over. Good day, gentlemen.
