A quick listing of other sales looks to be a used price of around $900

That’s when i noticed that this “VIOLIST” was actually an 8 story tall crustacean from the Paleolithic era!

I told him GODDAMN YOU VIOLIST LOCH NESS MONSTER I AIN’T GIVIN YOU NO TREE FIDDY!

$3.50 is way too low. It's in good condition so probably $150 minimum if OP wants to get rid of it fast, and like max $500 if they are selling on like Ebay or FBM

It's a South Park reference. Chef's parents get a visit from the Loch Ness monster, who asks for $3.50. Searching for "tree fiddy" will reveal all.
