Don't read you'll be sorry

I do not pay a lot for wires (compared to some at least) so I am not sorry I read this.

FWIW, my recollection from selling audio gear many years ago and having seen a lot of vendor cost versus sell price data is that accessories like wires and other similar relatively simple tweaks was by far where a lot of profit is made, markups of 100's of % or more, compared to very marginal profit for core electronic/component devices.

I doubt much about that has changed over the years.

Moral off the story: Buy wires used whenever possible! The used prices more reflect actual objective value and wires being relatively simple devices tend to hold up pretty well over time.

Ty Cobb was supposedly not a very nice guy I seem to recall.

"Cobb's legacy as an athlete has sometimes been overshadowed by his surly temperament and aggressive playing style,[17] which was described by the Detroit Free Press as "daring to the point of dementia."[18].

Cobb himself wrote shortly before his death, "In legend I am a sadistic, slashing, swashbuckling despot who waged war in the guise of sport."[19"

Sure could hit though.

I'm starting to feel a little sorry.
