The (1/10 of ) One Percent Seem to be Doing OK
In Response To: Interesting ()

I believe that the watch retailers might say the same thing: Watches in the range above $10,000 are selling well . . . the trouble is in the $1,000 to $4,000 range.

So the "one percent" of the population continues to buy the top 1/10 of one percent of the watches. I suppose that makes good sense!!

: As a corollary to the luxury new goods deal, I find that what sells
: quickly these days in the used market is the top end and high
: condition goods. There is money out there. What is difficult to
: sell is the medium end goods with condition issues.
