I've been tracking e-Bay Bluesbird prices - only the 1997-2003 reissues are included below - over the last six months or so.
The complete listings I'm looking at very recently seem to indicate that the prices have reached a new plateau.
Since March 17, out of six Bluesbirds sold the lowest price fetched is $1,027, the highest is $1,575, and the average is $1,197.
And this isn't counting the beaut LeBlaze has listed, which is riding the trend with three days to go and already at $1,400.
For a similar period of time in late-November to early-December, I tracked eight Bluesbirds, lowest for $810, highest for $1,100, and the average at $948.
Even the $948 average seemed to me at the time to be higher than last October, but I wasn't tracking as closely back then.
Either way, a 25% increase in average prices December to April is quite a lot.
Just another e-Bay cycle with circumstantial numbers, or have Bluesbird prices really taken off?
