All comes down to who is there and what is listed.
When I see these prices I just think of the gold mine I have.
What some collectors will spend surprises me. If it were a custom hand painted plane then I think this is reasonable, but not a as is ARES plane.
Nice price for a Schuckert!
Voilą le soleil d'Austerlitz!
<hangs head in shame> that was mine that sold.
But not the one you kindly sent me! This one went up for sale before our trade. A little while back I paid $90 for the 3-pack of SS D.III and the very same evening Anthony had his sale and I was fortunate to get a couple more. Then Tim sent me a bonus plane w000t! Having returned from furlough it's been a rough month on the pocketbook and I sold the Lange from the 3-pack. I still have two more Lange, two Veltjens, and three Von Beaulieu-Marconnay. Inexplicably love the look of those and so fun to play with.
I have a few more duplicates for sale ending tomorrow since I bought an entire lot of Series 3 since getting a Brumowski was proving impossible. Keeping about half but selling the Voss and Hautzmayer Alb D.III (duplicates for me) and some two-seaters. The Lange was going for $37 with five seconds to go and I was stunned it went so high.
wow! i remember when those were on clearance. wish id have loaded up.
Yeah, I remember when those where sitting on the shelf. Makes me wish I splurged and bought them all. Oh well, that is how it goes.
Wow. The value amazes me. I just pulled out two steamer trunks of planes as I hope to get my collection properly documented for some league play in a few months. I think I own everything produced up to the Giant Bomber kickstarter. None of you are allowed to tell my wife what this stuff is now worth!!!
