I totally do not believe that is the case. Sure their may be a few sour apples with those intentions, but don't use the same brush. Yes prices have exploded, and they may come back down they may not. this happens with all commodities, from collectibles to housing. And also as someone who is looking to buy something for the first time, it is up to them to do the homework to ensure they are getting a decent deal. If they don't it is their fault.
