[QUOTE="jared007, post: 463284, member: 6513"] I think they are great for the community. Only downside is that pretty much most of the high-end, and a lot of pre-production changes hands privately between friends so can be next to impossible to break into those circles if that's your goal. As a consequence, the wider community doesn't get to find out the market value of those. For example, take this Hakes.com auction at the moment - it's the only public sale I've known about for a carded DT Ben. I presume all the rest have taken place between closed doors. But on the whole, private sales build friendships in my opinion and that's good. [/QUOTE]
