Older Classe pieces really holding their prices...

All it says is that most gear depreciates to it's market level within three years or so. Many, many brands depreciate and then flat line like this.

Yes you are right for the most part but some gear flatlines then appreciates like alot of older Levinson. Case in point, Bought a 27.5 amp a few years ago for $1700. Now they are going for more. Bought a 36 dac for $1100 and then a 3yrs later they were going for $1500. Maybe someone started a trend don't know but Levinson gear seems to hold value then appreciate somewhat? Could be the newer stuff isn't up to snuff...lol?

I hear that if you gold plate the piece and wrap a diamond chain around it...it could very well go for considerably more than the original price. OR, get you some funny looks!
