Your issue was discussed rather extensively before, as I recall. I think the cost appears quite high too, but so what? It is Serotta's price. So you either pay it or go elsewhere. The painting cost is the core of your emotional turmoil.

I have learned in my life that there are many instances in which it simply is not worth the stress, the energy, or the time to continue in a situation. Very often it is not easy to let it go as the person has both an emotional commitment and what they perceive as a "I am right" commitment to the issue. But in the overall scope of what is/should be important in one's life the aforementioned instances are almost meaningless.

My suggestion is to just let it go. It isn't worth your time/energy/stress. Besides, a moderator already closed the previous thread.
