Seems that there is going to be a run on hackles soon

Been on the go for a wee while, some saddles are going for over £200 :shock :shock. Whiting are apparently selling packs instead of saddles to prevent this. The latest is doing the same for pets using smaller hackles so we're f****d either way. The only saving grace is that the fashion will burn out (hopefully sooner) and the market will be flooded with cheap capes from the hairdressing industry on ebay when the bubble bursts :z6

My missus just said she wants to start selling some of my stock. Lol. It could only happen in the U.S.A.
