That's all exceedingly basic stuff Tabby, but thanks for sharing. Any collector market operates just like that, for the most part. Nobody here is arguing that, least of all me. Until we get to the deep end of the pool, which is where my statements concerning the "big players" were directed, for the most part. Their affect does trickle into the shallower end, however. Someone had to be the first to pay $3,000 for a rather pedestrian Python that sold last year for $600.

Yes, there is the phenomena of the "feeding frenzy" (we have seen that in the early 911 world, we saw it in the housing bubble before it burst, etc.), which is another factor that will infect any collector market. I believe I used the word "fickle" to describe this kind of volatility.

So, in the end, it all boils down to the same advice first given in this thread. We've gone full circle.
