"Yeah, she can charge what she likes when she's not available. I'd like to think (hope) she's just inflated her prices to stop being pestered whilst she's away, then reduce down when back at it again. But.....I've noticed quite a few well reviewed SP's have stuck their prices up recently, £150 rising to £170 seems to be happening a fair bit. I fear our Elise may be now way out of my spending league."
Agreed, the jump from £150 to £170, whilst not a big rise in itself, it does have psychological effect on the punter's decision making
