Hi Simon,

I had no idea that the GBP was creeping back up. Well now, this is a game changer! Off to eBay.com, I go!


(Also, thank you, everybody for the great advice, I really do appreciate it :) )

Iain must dread it when this happens :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah, that would be the brexit meltdown every one predicted. Everyone's an economist. :roll:

Given the GBP is still depressed by a good 10-15% against almost every other major currency I'd say they were still right.
 
Well prices for vintage SW will be cheap soon anyway when the next global stock market crash / recession comes this year or next. :wink:
 
As someone who has just back into collecting vintage I completely agree that it's a daunting prospect wrestling with eBay etc. At least you can make an educated guess thanks to the forum.

Yes, I would say the weak dollar is down to a couple of fools in the current administration that said they wanted a weak dollar ... be careful what you wish for

Tax changes on the horizon and the first time in the history of modern economics that quantative easing is going to be unwound as well - plus a buffoon in charge won't help.

You've had a few lucky escapes in the last fortnight already, Iain. You're run of luck can't continue forever! :D
