    If you're already in the hobby and have a decent number of pins, when you buy and sell, it's all relative. Yes it hurts to lay out say $3000 for a T2, but if you're selling at the same time, you're riding the same wave upwards. Where this hurts is for people new to the hobby. They get excited, start buying, you know the drill, don't have the same perspective as someone who remembers back to prices before the mayhem. Demand > Supply (and the $ spiral upwards of JJP and Stern new pins) keeps the prices climbing.
