Has anyone noticed the rather stout increase in prices being asked at
eBay
by euro based dealers, followed of course by US dealers .... after the
drop in the
US dollar vs Euro .... and ... inflation in European catalog values
published (or
alleged) recently.

It has resulted a a huge increase in start prices being asked at eBay in
many
cases, a drastic drop in bidding (in the catagories I collect), and some
bidders are
holding tight doing nothing while a few are paying outrageous prices for
common
material?

Is this a new permanent fixture in stamp collecting?
