Don't know other people. Here is my feeling. If I buy a pistol for a few thousand dollars, the feeling is this "it's so expensive". If I sell a pistol for a few thousand dollars, the feeling is usually different "it's so cheap" -- even on some pieces come relatively low. Back a few months ago, I acquired a Mauser for $3k, told my spouse "Spent another three grands. But this one probably could sell 5 to 10 times of this price if I send it to an auction house". She has no interest in any firearms, not even a single cent of interest. But even she said, "if it's so hard to come as you said, you don't want to sell it".
