I always wonder if people have told them to their face that they were insane for paying that price for it and it's restoration. I bet they've learned now. I'm just amazed that the restorer didn't know anything about these trunks. And you know dang well he did basic research along the restoration process. He knew what it was worth.
Remember that trunk that was in the first season that was super old, I believe the 1600's? Now THAT is worth $2,000. Well, I'd pay that much for it.
