I think that will, unfortunately for me, change pretty soon. I sell/repair old watches, and horological tools. I am seeing the price of used watchmakers tools, and mechanical watches(Omega Seamaster, Tudor(a cheaper Rolex), and pretty much every high end watch go up in price. Hell, even Elgin's, and Bunrus watches are going up faster than I want. I used to be able to go to EBay, and CL and scoop these watches, and tools up. Not anymore. I thought the smart watch would put an end to mechanical watches; so far it's been the absolute opposite, but might change if they ever get a smart watch so right--the people with money need to wear it? As to furniture--I think it's just time? Why buy IKEA, when you can buy an antique that you can give to your kids? The IKEA will go to the Craigslist free curb route? I take that back. Some of you would give a friend/relative an IKEA piece? My father once gave me his old underware. He meant well--I think? Oh, and his old Sears tube socks. They were so worn, the elastic strands were beyond broken--the polymers couldn't keep their positive/negative charge. I thought I could use them to polish my truck, but they just didn't even work for that. My dad meant well--just very frugal. Or, a fool? I haven't quite figured it all out?
