Whens this darn market gonna get cheaper

Seems it keeps going up for the most part every month, for once Coin Vault was right this morning, and their prices were actually pretty close to that of the price guides. This morning they actually knew what they were talking about, except maybe grading, even with the NGC label, they can't seem to find a right grade. So whens everyone think its gonna slow down, doesn't bother me too much. The stuff I collect is not popular enough to go up to make me complain. Some of you must be paying crazy prices for those high grades, keys, and semi-keys. I have noticed semi-keys, and even if its possible semi-semi-keys in popular series going up in value, might be the time to buy those up, who knows.

    I've always said you get what you pay for but lately I've been paying much more for a lot less

    This market will get cheaper when everyone stops buying. When the inventory doen't move and piles up or stays stagnant, prices will come down. The old law of demand and supply. Simple as that.

    Don't expect the good stuff to get cheap until the old farts die off and their grandkids start taking their killer collections to the pawn shops. My guess.....about 10-15 yearsimage

    Can you believe a new customer told me he was not going to follow thru on a 1799 Eagle in AU-58 ( Very PQ)? Talk about adding to our stress here.

    Good price.

    Timing not the best as it's trapped in a safe deposit box in Port Charlotte, but there ya go.
