<p>[QUOTE="charley, post: 8290538, member: 5372"]I concur, because many of the pieces will be off the market for years, and there will be many re-submitted and CAC'd, and held in private collections. The price point for the also-rans, but not offered for a few years, is now out of the bag, though, and I expect (as I am sure you do) that the floor prices will be established going forward and there will be a general uptick in other shows this year. None of the also-rans will equal Fairmont, but the upward pricing will continue. This is not the best thing that could happen to the hobby, but it may bring out pieces in collections that have not been available before, because collectors will be able to take profits off the table and move on, in a way that hasn't really been experienced by the collector before. Sort of an equalizing of buy-sell favoring the collector, which does not happen that often. That is a good thing, and will keep the hobby strong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
