How's this for value...your opinions...2¢ If your bullsh-t were true, then there would be no art market. No any market at all. You think someone who pays $4 mil for a Picasso "valued" at $2 mil paid more than "market value" or did the buyer simply raise the "value"? Same thing with 20th anniversary Macs. Or Original Apple IIs. Or 69 Mustangs. Those are just obvious examples. Value = scarcity + demand, all constant variables. Friggin' communist... He was asking us for a value. Was he buying or selling? If he was buying to resell then the "value" would be less, certainly, than "retail", yes? Was he selling because he needed money for heart surgery? Then the "value" was what he could get his hands on in a day. Only one place, aside from government intervened markets, where "values" are constant...Monopoly, where you can still buy a house for $200.... -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
