5 grand, is he smoking crack! limited edition or not, no one in their right mind would buy it for that price, it would even be a stretch if it was for charity

It looks the part but in all honesty for much less than a $5K budget, access to a decent sheet metal folder, a sink/benchtop from the local building recyclers, some drawer slides and castors, a stainless steel MIG welder you can borrow and a mate in the powdercoating industry willing to do a perky you could build something from scratch that was a hell of a lot more practical and just as pretty as that.For the $AUD10K its allegedly worth I'd expect a built in Laziboy and TV as well as bar and massage facilities.

That is the true cost when it is made by people with skills in the first world. Not someone making $10 a day in China.

Bunch of haters lol, love the "I could build that" speeches, I had quotes of over $2000 for a set of drawers made of mdf for my Landcruiser FFs - I gave up

I spent that in about 2 years - wish these kits were available on finance when I started lol, I had to buy off Pushy Pete from Snap On Dunedin - mind you, stings at the time - but I still have all the tools I started with
