Here is a subject that interests me. Has the speculative bubble in Harbour Lights burst? Does it make any sense to buy multiple pieces of the new 10,000 piece versions? The quality of the new HL's is incredible and the number of new collectors is, I think, growing. But will the value of the newer pieces increase as the value of the older pieces have.
When I attended the first reunion I heard of collectors who were buying multiples of every piece put out. The price of really popular pieces, ie. Thomas Point, does not seem to be increasing. I don't know, but has Sanibel increased in price now that it is disappearing from the shelves? Maybe a special issue like Hillsboro Inlet will increase, but maybe not if 3000 collectors buy all 6500 pieces. The prices on the secondary market nearly stopped me from starting on my collection. Fortunatly, I found most of the Oregon lights at retail and then was off and running.
I buy them because I like them. Is there any other good reason?
