2008 - 2009 market boom, did you benefit?

[-:Undertaker:-]

This recent boom which we are still in (although it has decreased a bit) has been the biggest we've ever seen on our hotel, bigger than the famous 2006 boom. The question is, did you, have you and are you benefitting from it?

Below are some examples of previous prices, prices may be different now, or rising back up as in february/march 2009 we saw a 1/3 drop in most items prices.

The list is endless, nearly every rare has risen in this boom, but the question is, are you richer now than you were in 2007/start of 2008?


Also to those who remember the 2006 summer boom, did you make profit then?

i got over 20 thrones at 75 hc value increase profit from some of the rares of in this list other include gbb's and dj's which i bought at 2 hcs per back in the day.

Erm, I sold a Gothic Ectoplasm Fountain for 8hc not long ago. I didn't think they would ever be worth that much. Looks like they've gone up again though!

[-:Undertaker:-]

In the 2006 summer boom I went from about 5.0 CS upto about 100.0 CS, in 2007 dropped to about 70.0 CS and now (2008 - 2009 boom) i'm over 200.0 CS although i'm unsure how the recent price drop has affected me.
