That gives a whole new perspective on "heirloom quality." I think this is a symptom of what happens in this hobby when "you have to have something." To me it leads down a lot of paths of being less discriminating on what you buy and who you buy it from in many instances. Not trying to be supercilious, just providing a POV.
