RE: The Conundrum of Getting, Having & Keeping A Buttload of Steem
I was trading on eBay back then... and it was insane. Been down the "collecting" road many a time... rare stamps, old fountain pens, Beanies, other things. "Collectors" are fine, and often are the "market makers." However, when the investor-exploiter types enter the market... that's when it's time so pop some popcorn and watch the insanity.
Yeah, I remember when Alpacas were all the rage, breeding pairs going for $10k-$12k and yet the marketing still talked about future markets in Alpaca meat. ?!?!
And my wife's not dealing with those kind of Beanies, it's more often than not the ones that still sell for $4 (but I just know the market is going to rebound).
