I once replied to an advert in the Manchester Evening News that had a mopp head for sale. I phoned the vendor who told me he wanted £300 for it. My first reaction was, "do you mean there's only one?" and the second obviously concerned the price. He was adamant that it was well kept. I still told him that the price was ridiculous. I'd pay no more than a couple of quid. He got angry. He told me I wouldn't be able to buy even a scrap moped for a couple of quid. Moped! Didn't I feel silly.
