Am I missing something here?
Check out this auction. It's almost double the already inflated Spink price and is about to close as I write this. It's a nice piece, but is it over $400 nice? Bidiots, or is it something else?
Bidiots are always welcome at my auctions.

I am also seeing the same kind of pricing with dealers who are new to the world coin market, they try to sell a $20 coin for $4-500 because it has nice toning, or a decent but relatively common Victoria piece for double or triple the market price. It makes some of the previous high priced dealers look like they are giving them away.

last week 4 Australians were bidding on a simple 1926 Canadian 5 cent piece, about VF20 on a good day, and not the Far six.
went for $26.....5 fold of what it is worth....
OR, perhaps we are all missing the bus???
are prices going up???
