I was shocked when my friend came back from the quilting show with one of these and said that she paid $25.00. I didn't have the heart to tell her I got one from Walmart for $6.00. I checked under the company sticky logo that was on it and it was a Wahl Trimmer. As we have all said before, if an item is used for some hobby, you can expect it to double or triple in price or whatever the market can bear.
