I'm back from self-imposed exlie, and what's happened to SS tool watch prices?

[alanc]

Hello all-

I bailed from this site back in early 2013 or thereabouts, because I was feeding the tuition monster and had no spare coin for my (2) relatively modest grails - a 1661oLV kermit; and a 16613 Blusey - and it was killing me. I did manage to snag a 16710 pepsi in late 2012 with some money that came in unexpectantly.

Now that my two daughters are both out of school, I though I'd jump back in. I'm sure I wasn't missed, as I barely made a blip here; I mostly just tried to learn from heads much wiser than mine.

Anyway, now that I'm back, imagine my shock to see that my GMT that I bought for under $6000 in excellent shape with box and papers in late 2012, has now at least doubled.

As for the Bluesy, they've gone from around $7000 when I last checked, to thelow teens.

As for the kermit, that seems the craziest of all - $6000 to mid teens!

What in God's name has happened in six years?
