<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 3755180, member: 73165&quot;]As a simple collector, I&#039;m treating it as a buying opportunity.&nbsp; There are things affordable to me now that simply would not have been ~10 years ago, even if I were making a similar income then to what I am now, classic commems among them. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I&#039;ve been holding out on some of the bigger pieces for a while, hoping they&#039;ll drop a bit, and I have actually noticed some downward movement in MS63-64 Hawaiians... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Fair enough, but where does that leave dealers?&nbsp; The optimal move for the individual dealer in a falling market seems to be to price things to sell, make less money on each transaction, and make up for it in volume.&nbsp; In other words, keep the metal moving.&nbsp; It seems like that would cause further downward pressure in the market.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Tell me about it!&nbsp; I was absolutely thrilled to get ahold of a Soviet-era mint set from my birth year for $70, when normally they sell individually for $90+!&nbsp; These sets aren&#039;t rare, but someone must really want them if they&#039;re listed for that much regularly on eBay.&nbsp; Since it&#039;s multiple sellers listing them, I&#039;m reasonably sure it&#039;s not just etsy levels of market cluelessness driving these listings.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
