While I appreciate your incisive commentary Mr. Agent, I believe it to be common knowledge that a fungible triple trout sells for a bit over $70 USD by the average retailer.
With fear of belaboring certain fundamental laws of economics, a custom paint job consists of labor (which in most first world nations, sans the people's republic of china, holds value) and results in a unique, infungible and arguably improved product.
Supporting the conclusion that a unique swimbait holds appreciated value is the principle that a unique, customized bait possesses greater appeal to fishermen (and theoretically, largemouth bass) due to the limited, or nonexistent supply.
Hence, the price greater than MSRP.

Thanks 909... in order to obtain my GED I really needed to study up on my vocab, my san bernardino public school education just wasn't cutting it. Need to work on my math though, then maybe i could have avoided foreclosure. No worries, I always have my Bass Pro Shop a couple of miles away so all is well with the world. That place is like Disneyland for necks, I fit right in.
Wish I could take credit for the paint job... it was the work of someone with some semblance of artistic ability, unlike myself.
80 bucks still takes it!

Do you know who painted it? I have a Zara Spook I bought from someone and I'm pretty sure it bears the same signature. PM if you can, thanks
