I agree with John and Jerry. I use to collect Bud beer steins in the early 90's still have a great collection. The problem there was with E-bay and other auctions people knowing nothing about the hobby flooded the market which brought down prices. I think the word is getting out as more and more people are listing strikes not having any ideal what there worth and the market is starting to get flooded. Prices will come down a little the good part is that the mintage of chase strikes is fairly low so that should keep the prices on these fairly high. Also most members don't like to buy but like to trade at least that is the fun part for me.
