WHY THE PRICE GOES UP NOT DOWN

Please read this FAQ to understand why our prices increase.  

WE GIVE YOU THE BEST VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY
All our items are very carefully researched to insure they are easily worth at least our asking price,
 and we will eventually sell them for that price or more. Think about it!  
Would we be offering you the best value if we sold art and antiques that declined in value?  
Would customers trust us to help increase their investments?   Would we stay in business?
The longer our items are on the market, the MORE they are worth.
Our items increase in value and are worth more over time not less; their prices go up, not down.  

THE ITEM HAS BEEN AROUND AWHILE; SHOULDN'T THE PRICE GO DOWN?  WHY DID THE PRICE GO UP?  
The fact that great things take time to sell , and that they might not sell right away,
is not a reflection of their worth or value; it is simply an artifact of the marketplace.
We've been in the trade since the 1940's and have been eBay PowerSellers for more than a decade.  
We can tell you innumerable stories of items that sold only after 20 auctions or after months or years in a store.
At auctions, sometimes items sell for several times their minimum bid after attracting no bids at all for several rounds.
It sounds odd, but that's the way it is.
At any given time, there are literally millions of items for sale and most are typically on the market for about a week.
Like selling a house, it takes time for the right buyer who loves it to find it and buy it.

When we put an item up for sale, we put it up for the absolute minimum price we find appropriate.
We consider a lot of information when we set prices: what it cost to make, what was paid for it ,
what similar items sell for in the current market, what it is worth in an efficient marketplace,
what it costs us to sell it, what it costs us to pack it and to ship it, what it costs to store it until we sell it,
what it costs us to tell customers it's for sale, etc. On consigned pieces,
the owners authorize a price after consulting with us, and we unable to accept offers lower than that price.
Our items are the best value you can buy and their prices go up over time, not down;
their value increases over time and they're worth more, not less.

Most items take time to sell ; most items do not sell right away.
The fact that great things take time to sell , and that they might not sell right away,
is not a reflection of their worth or value; it is simply an artifact of the marketplace.
