With rare OD-1 pedals over $1000 it seems unlikely that prices will fall for long...
Laurie has a point, the same thing is happening down here in Brazil, with the new models like RC-5, OC-5 and SY-1, for exemple, reaching retail prices close to US$ 400.00 ~ 500.00, people with any very beaten up Japanese model, jumps to say that "It's a black label! Very rare!".
They compare the prices and think that their old piece of garbage will have even more apeal to a collector.
Recently, a guy was asking almost a thousand US dollars for a well preserved, in box and manual, CE-2 MIJ green label. And I went mad because I want one of those, but not enough stupid to pay that price. Not yet, at least...
So the questions are: Is it a bubble? Will it burst some day?
