truth is,is that if so many hoarders released some of their parts that they probably are never going to use then demand would drop and so would the prices,it's a shame really as most people will give up trying and their dream of building a old school bmx will never be met,and for a lot of people this"faze" will end and how much money money will they lose when they have bought 20 odd bikes at a grand a time :-[

i think for the collectors its never worried em about the money, so many people have come and gone already in the last 6 yrs and i can only see more going cos there bored with it or have what they want
