Screw that! Thats for people that have more money than common sense. I don't care who owned it, I'm not paying any more than market value is.

I'm with you on that. Kind of like wearing a jersey with another guys name on it.

It's called an investment.


Don't begrudge someone that has the disposable income to make such a purchase just because you can't.

It's only going to increase in value so how is that being having more money than "common sense" when the longer they keep it the more valuable it will become?


I don't get wearing a jersey with another man's name on it either.

Is that something like going steady?

It's called provenance. It has always been a fact that having something old that can be connected directly back to some historical event and/or person can be worth 10 times as much as a similar object with no provenance.
