This hobby is like any economical cycle, it goes up and down.
Sometimes is stays asleep for a while and then a big surge happens.
It is pretty obvious that the inflated prices that we saw in the past were merely " controllable events ", fully created by dealers alike. I have to admit that they were very sucessfull but like anything else, it has to be done with caution but none of this was done and hence, somehow "killed" the hobby for now ...................... until the new "bubble" comes along.
