I hate to admit it, but I agree with Mike Richards that the collection has peaked. Last year, when I made the decision to sell part of my growing collection and establish guardbands for what I was willing to buy (since I couldn't possibly own them all) I managed to sell several pieces at a tidy profit. This year I sold the remainder of the ones I wanted to sell at or below retail. I now have a core collection that represents my particular favorites. Last year a secondary broker offered me $550 for a LE Portland Head and I turned it down. Now they are selling the same lighthouse for under $500. I tried to sell my Coquille River (original paperwork but not the original box) and can't find a secondary dealer interested in buying it. Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing.
