She showed me a deep pot of this Calphalon cookware, intended for
simmering and boiling. The inside was pitting. She called the
manufacturer and they said she was using too high heat. She said,

hot?!" She paid yes, folks, $1500.00 for the one pot. Don't bother!

You're an idiot if you actually believe somebody paid $1,500 for a
single Calphalon pot.

No, she was an idiot for paying for it.

What people are suggesting is that there is NO SUCH THING as a single pot
which Calphalon expects dealers to sell for anywhere near $1500.00. I am
NOT going to waste time looking around the web to back this up, but it's
simply common sense.

For every idiot product or idiot price there's an idiot somewhere out
there ready to buy it.

If only I'd invested in pet rocks....

And, beanie babies, which were destined to be collectors items. Destined.
