With so many good custom call makers it baffles me that the demand is so high for a chunk of wood with a piece of Pennsylvania slate that folks pay triple digits for it. Penn State needs to up my salary I guess!

I just shake my head, the only pot I'd pay close to that price would be Frank Cox

I see guys post about prices, really it is a "to each their own". I can't pay some of these prices, but really if a guy wants a call, and he is willing to pay the price asked, it's his business. I'm not posting out of anger, or anything, but Paul isn't taking orders right now and corder is hard to obtain too. Just let people pay what they want. It's ok to pass on an exspensive pot, but we all have pots that are in our bucket list. What seems crazy to some is just a goal or a bucket list pot to own. Will it call turkeys better? Who really knows, but to the buyer it was Obviously worth their dollar.

Consumer driven market, the more people are willing to pay on his calls when they come up for sale, the more he will charge to get one new, basic economics. If some people aren't willing to pay it then he'll make up those lost profits by higher margins on the ones that do buy them. Less work and more money. Smart move from a business stand point. At the end of the day it goes back to the principle of "What's this worth?" --- What you are willing to pay for it.

Ain't that the truth. I ordered a Platz cherry slate on March 7, 2014 and was killing birds with it in April. I think the lead time on the Walnut glass I ordered after that was probably a month.
