Coming from the guy who wont even spend a dime with a food vendor at a shoot. Too expensive.

ALL PARKER'S are the same on the inside, the higher grades have more lipstick in various shades. In other words a Trojan will do any thing a AAHE will do. Save your money for now, all those high priced Parkers will be dropping in the near future. More than 80% of the Parker Guys are Old Guys and their high priced Parkers with be Low Priced Parkers shortly.

Maybe the same type folks who buy vintage autos, vintage motorcycles, coins, art, wine etc? Folks have been collecting various items for a long time. I suppose there could be a sudden end to that trend. Only time will tell.

The world collects the items you mentioned. May be wrong here, but are a significant number of Parkers owned outside the USA? You are right; time will tell. Got a BHE to sell some day and hope I can get my 20k back...lol.
