            Exaclty, but unfortunately some people have too much money. 40 years ago my dad and I had a small wholesale antique business. It was mostly a hobby, but pretty profitable. In our area at this time people started paying outrageous prices for a piece simply because they wanted it. It was great for the retailers, but it ruined our business. It was impulsive and impossible to predict. The market has tanked with the economy and I laugh every time I look at the 130 year old solid walnut roll top desk that I bought last December for 1/5 of the market list price (about 1/3 of wholesale).

            I was hoping that our hobby would experience the same market fluctuation, but that's not happening. Maybe in 10-15 years.

                I guess since he could not get $49,969.69 for these wheels he decided to change the price...

                    Must have had one or two people that were really interested in them.
