Having a banged-up body might be fun to own.... "Then there was the
time in Bosnia when I single-handedly carried that family to safety while
under heavy gunfire. Didn't have time to take photos... had to go back
and save the cat!" :-)))
Seriously, though, I certainly don't mind a bit of brassing, but if it's
totally "banged-up" I worry that the thing might not have been cared for.
On the other hand, I'm not sure I'd want a clean-as-a-whistle body,
either, as I'd be afraid of using it for fear of ending its "purity." :-)
