<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 846704, member: 112&quot;]Even many of the rarities have recently sold for 50%, or less, of what the previous price was for the same exact coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>What many of the publications do is search out the anomolies, and it doesn&#039;t have to be a rarity, that sells for more than it did previously. There&#039;s always some that do, regardless of what the market as a whole is doing.</p><p><br /></p><p>And they do this for very specific reasons. First of all, if all the news they printed was negative it would have a noticeable impact on the sales of the magazines. Sales would drop because people don&#039;t like to read about how prices are dropping. Also, negative news about prices dropping causes many potential buyers to put on the brakes and decide to wait a while before making that next big purchase. That in turn causes advertisers to drop there spending because now they have less money coming in. </p><p><br /></p><p>The whole thing creates a vicious circle of cause and effect. So publications almost always try to focus on the positive aspects, and there are always some to report on, instead of the negative aspects. It is what keeps the entire industry moving along.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
