My first impression is that it's too much, but this may be the start of a new trend for Elvis prices. Elvis, Ruth, Monroe. The three most popular blue chips and most often forged. Elvis now 40 years dead, with the stock market headed for $30K, maybe even more, investors not reluctant to spend, and despite nuclear tensions, promises of aggressive business de-regulation and trillions in repatriations. When the economic outlook is optimistic, people spend, and Elvis autos, like others, may be headed for a price Renaissance in memorabilia trends, an upward surge. If that's the case, look for a whole new crop of Elvis forgers to start wielding the pen. lol

Me too. But think of disposable $$$$ like a fixed amount of fluid filling many different reservoirs of the same hydraulic system. For the most part, over the past 10 years or so, that amount of disposable luxury $$$$, mad-money, so to speak, has pretty much been fixed. The levels in those many different reservoirs has been fixed, that is, if the stock market rose, that particular reservoir, another fluid level would fall somewhere down along the line. What I see is a whole new supply of fluid being added to that system, I sense a lot of new money, new disposable cash for investing entering. The market sure shows it and so does many other hobbies. A lot of new buyers sustaining higher demand, higher prices. I think all prime collectibles are headed in the same direction as the stock market. I think the upswing is coming in certain autos, if not here already, as it is in other collectible, disposable cash driven markets. All trends I'm seeing seem to point that that.

I think we should pay autographs as little as possible... Or is not an investment...

While it's good to pay as little as possible, at that end of the bargain spectrum awaits Coach's Corner type pieces, and their ilk. Sometimes a little too much of a bargain winds up being no bargain at all. :o
