What can one expect to pay for a metal O’Riordan whistle? Wooden?

A lot.
Best to ask on www.chiffandfipple.com go to the message board.
Don’t know what you’ll pay to current owners (I hear he’s no longer taking orders), but the whistles I bought from him 3 years ago cost $120 (wooden) and around $100 (anodized aluminum).
I would say multiply those prices by 4 and you have the prices I have seen recently.
Apparently one went for $850 on ebay recently.
8 years ago :
One said $480 for a wooden and $400 for an anodized aluminium
Another said to have seen one for $850 on ebay
Recently, one told me that he have seen one with 2 tubes for $510
…and what would you think is the value today for a complete set in perfect shape ?
The famous wooden mouthpiece
The slide tube
And the 3 tubes anodized aluminium (C/D/Eb)
I have a problem. My dog chewed the fipple to my set of three metal O’Riordan whistles. It is very sad….
If you have any ideas regarding replacing it, I would appreciate your help.
