Al has thusly spoke: "Handled correctly, that sale might pay for a few semesters of college." ...which, of course, I could REALLY use. I suspect, however, that if such an ephemeral creature ever appears, I probably won't think much of its worth and will get rid of it in a manner that will make it the recipient's good fortune, not mine. Well I did spoke thusly and I am going to spoke thusly again ;-) I had to think of its worth. I have no other means of support. I think of the worth of all of the plants I sell. I think the people who pay for those are getting good fortune for the price too. And I think the people who chose to keep their money in their pocket know where their fortune lies or lays, whatever... I also think of the expenses of keeping them around. I like growing orchids. Selling them is a necessity. They don't have to be rare. In fact considering how this alba made me feel just having it around I probably would rather just grow and sell the other kind. There are people who think I should have held out for 4 or 5 times what I sold it for and I can not even imagine that. There may even be people who would pay that much, some of them didn't get to me fast enough, apparenly. I feel I got fair value and good fortune for my plant and I think those who bought it feel the same way. I think those who would pay 4 to 5 times more will also pay for the names of the people I sold it to, if they can't figure it out. But do remember i have that list now, and there is no reason you shouldn't think of its worth that I can think of if you find such a plant in a wholesale coffin from hawaii. It sure can't happen often. I wouldn't sell it to you. I will give it to you freely. speak amongsth thyselves. I may spoke thusly again later. |
