Are We In A Recession?

[🪦 ThePhantomKiller ●]

I don't buy the excuse of the recession for any of it. Most collectors who buy masks/resin kits/action figures whatever...many have that disposable income. The buyers do not determine the general price, either. How many tattoo artists out there have reduced the prices of their tattoos to be more recession friendly? Maybe a few could say they have, but for the vast majority it's still gonna be the same price tag according to the amount of work they put into a piece. The same goes for any mask or fx artist who is trying to make a living. I have a hard time believing these so called 'mask pricing trends' even exist, if a collector wants a piece badly enough they're going to pay the full asking price, initially. The re sale issue is quite another question entirely. One exception would be eBay, though. I've seen many price drops on masks simply because the seller chose the avenue of eBay for a quick sale. But look at guys like Casey Love's prices and Jordu's, all the higher end stuff still wouldn't budge. To be fair, someone like Jeremy Bohr's stuff is incredibly fair priced, for the most part, given the quality.
