Over $80 for 32 saddle hackle feathers? And this isn't an anomaly; there have been quite a few auctions for saddle hackle that went for prices like these, with more up for bids now.
I'm assuming no self-respecting tyer would 1) pay that for a few feathers, and 2) use those garish colors on a dry fly. So it must be the artsy-crafty folks who are doing the bidding.

I think I see a new career in my future. A $30 saddle and $4 worth of Kool-Aid powder and I'm in bidness.
