[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by deschane</i> <br />I also think alot of the folks in brass are collectors and that they have had some responsibility for brass prices getting out-of-hand. Also, Like I said, when it's time to cash out of the hobby, brass pieces will give a better return on your investment! None of you seem to want to acknowledge this fact! <br />[/quote] <br />Consumer interest and demand certainly causes brass manufacturers to take notice--and prices most assuredly will rise. Greater profits, in any language, elicits the same response: an adrenaline rush. <br /> <br />I've no beef with collectors who can purchase brass products with as much ease as I buy it plastic's counterparts. If it were <i>me</i> however, I'd purchase brass for the pleasure of owning something I desired, not because of an anticipated high yield on my investment.
