    Part of my early morning routine is to view ads for Ferraris, C2 Corvettes and vintage motorcycles.
    Seems like all these categories are seeing a substantial increase in asking price.
    Looking at actual sales prices on BAT and some of the other websites, these same cars and motorcycles just aren't getting the kind of money reflected in asking price.
    I am convinced we are in for some major inflation once the Covid19 pandemic deteriorates. Perhaps the people selling collectable vehicles are already ahead of the curve.
    Interested in what others are seeing.

    As always, "asking" vs. "getting" is the key issue.

    Seller can ask for whatever they'd like. Buyer has the option to pass or negotiate. If the ask it out of whack with the real market, most buyers are going to search elsewhere. Maybe the seller gets lucky and the unicorn buyer comes along for him.

    Only other option is there's a sudden influx of reluctant sellers who will only budge "if they get what they ask for, and not a penny less.

    Are you seeing a spike in volume on these as well? In the Ferraris, are you seeing mostly 5 year old and less jumping up in volume? What they're trying to sell, and how many are available vs 90 days ago would be interesting to know.
