I have to agree with you, Tim. Thinking on a positive note, this is a great time for a new collector to get into HLs. One can build quite a collection for about half it cost for the same amount of pieces a few years ago.

Like the "T.J. Max" commercial states, "Get the max for the miniumum!" Seek out and buy every deal you can find. The deals will eventually dry up when the inventories disappear. Maybe then prices will stabilize and return more to their norm. Don't hold your breath on this but things will change in the future.
