As for investing money in the collecting of weapons is highly questionable. I can cite the example of an interesting story.
I have a good friend, a production worker by the way, printed on souvenirs, leather and so on. At the exhibitions in Germany and the U.S. for the third year takes the first place. All in degrees. Sam always entirely in black leather with a bandana on his head, with rings with skulls. A very tight already over forty. So, as you sit in my office in the morning and sipping kofeek, said that puts his clothing collection of German sabers to show someone. Himself sick, and dangerously so many weapons in the house. I asked how much it costs, he told me - "I do not know, he bought ten years ago for $ 500 would have given and for 1500. After he left, I climbed into the Internet and to the surprise I find that one such dagger worth $ 1500-5000. Counted and it turns out that his collection is worth between 15 000 to 25 000 $. I called him and say - do not get excited to give for 1500. The next day he was teasing me that not only in the pictures can be nested, but I find it strange because this stuff should be in bulk. He takes my contacts, calls, rides and disappointed, all that the Internet offers for such substantial money he offered to take the realization of $ 300-500 apiece. Also not bad (in the amount turned out still more than 1500, for which he was ready to give, but after such numbers, such as "beneath one's dignity"). A short time later, to me at the Fair - "Knives" in the CHA, and among all sorts of modern, see as many as three of the stand with the German daggers and daggers, surprised this free offer, this is exactly weapons, ask the price, I also throw up from 1500 to 3000 $ apiece. And how much is actually I already vkurse.
