Here in Spain, I've never been able to see anything go for less than 70 euro (chinese stuff). That would be the cheap of the cheap.
For example, the Paul Stanley Sovereign you sold, in USA you could find it for $99 (or maybe less, as you seem to imply?), here in the few shops that still have it, it is 350€, as special discount 295€, when they have. (and I'm talking about the normal one, not the pro)

I've been a magnet for cheap guitars, but I think that this particular Hastings store is inclined to "dump" guitars rather than keep them on the shelves. I've been lucky enough to catch them as they were marked down. I paid $35 for that Paul Stanley Sovereign Special and then sold it months later for $135 on E-bay. I liked the guitar, but my wife was tired of the space that my guitars were taking in the home. Now I wish that I kept it.
Anyway, $35 is an anomaly for a guitar--even Chinese made guitars. I have seen those Sovereigns for $99 on Ebay, but not retail. I think retailers were selling them as low as $129 at one time.
