I think that the prices charged for many higher end silvertip brushes are ridiculously high. Here is just one example:
This is the Vulfix 2235 Super badger:

And here is the same brush with a silvertip knot:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.vulfixoldoriginal.com/products-detail.asp?CatID=1&SubCatID=22&ProductID=6" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.vulfixoldoriginal.com/produc ... roductID=6</a><!-- m -->
Including VAT the price difference is £97.64
I paid about £90 for my recent purchase of a Simpsons PJ2 with the top of the range super knot.
How on earth can an extra £98 be justified when the only difference is a silvertip knot compared with a super knot in the same handle?
