Peaked / Declining

Recently checked on a few sets I have sold couple years ago to see what sort of profits I left on the table. To my surprise, many are actually lower, 2 years later. Some significantly. Always thought prices either continously rise or at least plateau. Here's an example below: I sold the beetle set over year ago at about 220-230. Now its 190'ish. Thats a 10% loss and an extra year storage fees and opportunity costs. Painful. There are a bynch of other sets that while they have not dipped, have definetly stagnated, such as quidditch. This hastens my evolution to the quicker flip side of the spectrum. And SO many sets that jumped post 12/22 retirement are significantly lower. Sesame Street for example was $200 in January - now $170. Sure, I think itll re-rise, but the early (big) bird catches the worm.
