'thought I'd revisit this one, even if just to have something non-TR in the New Posts list for 27 seconds....
I've now been monitoring the changes (decline) in market pricing for the Virtus helmet for nearly 3 years and have been able to plot the results below. By my reckoning, all Virtus helmets will be free at the War and Peace Show in 2020. :-)
After 3 years of committed and dedicated studying of the behaviour of market pricing from date of issue to general issue the key findings are:-
1. things get cheaper for a while when there's more of them
2. errrr......that's it
I should stress that I'm not a statistician....nor an economist...and, apparently I should tell you than I'm not authorised to provide financial advice....and advise you that other similar services may be available..and my fees/charges are clearly displayed (elsewhere). I should also warn you that the above chart in no way endorses or otherwise the work undertaken by the person known here as "Composite", nor should it be taken as financial advice or otherwise. Charts such as that shown are just one way of displaying data - other methods or data modelling tools are available. Prices shown are in UK pounds - other currencies are available - any attempt to convert to other currencies will be at the risk of the individual undertaking the conversion. Currency fluctuations are a risk. This study in no way endorses or condones the purchase of the subject of this study. This work does not recommend any specific Show in the UK - War and Peace is simply mentioned as an indicator of time rather than event itself - other Shows are available. Helmets may not be available for sale or otherwise at some UK Shows. It is highly recommended that collectors do not attempt to obtain items free of charge without the agreement of the vendor or vendors. This study was undertaken in the UK - similar items in other countries may vary from the UK specification and other local economic and legal factors may influence the results of any similar surveys undertaken elsewhere. Side-effects may occur including boredom, distraction, financial decline, charging/arrest (first few weeks), perceived need for more space. In the event of any serious health issues including but not restricted to developing an interest in Composite Helmets or any other non-TR items is not the responsibility of the Poster and no responsibility for anything whatsoever will be taken therein. No animals were harmed in this exercise, nor were they photographed. All monitoring was undertaken under lavatory conditions. Other non-TR helmets are available...although when you look at the Posts on this forum you'd find that hard to believe!
