Yeah,

I'm having a hard time deciding whether I want to start selling my collection or not (of course there's a few I will hold onto). It's tough when they are commanding such high prices at this time. I bought a shot pistol when they came out and I believe that I paid $600 for it. All my pistols are still new and unturned and it kills me to have guns I don't shoot.

Not to mention all the times a called Gary to bug him about when my new purchases would be ready. I miss those conversations.

I too have been watching USFA's on the private resale market.
I  had lusted after one of those wacky OmniPotents ... I was saving up my lunch money
and then it sort of disappeared ... and then USFA folded. it's all rather sad.

My advice is -
if your like 'em, keep 'em and enjoy them, because "they ain't making any more".
if you have them as an investment, remember Tulip Mania http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulip_mania

and remember - advice is worthwhat you paid for it  ;D
