To miller's point, you see this with a lot of nostalgia items. Price peaks about 30-40 years after introduction, when those who desired them in their youth, finally have the money to buy, and time to enjoy. Then they tend to decline in value as that group of people's health declines, and priorities change. Some true classics will maintain value.
Unreal prices
Watching a YouTube video about receiver wars of 1970 piqued my interest so I checked eBay.
Pioneer SX-1950 going for $5000 plus.
My lowly SX-1050 going for $1700.
Those prices, with deflation to the 70s, are list prices back then. Kept their value. 😀
