    Well, the F4 went for $15,100.00. Tell me guys-what is going on? I see some well-known folks bid in the nines.-but 15k? I wouldn't pay that for all the tea in china. This is hype, a bubble, and someone will eventually lose their shirt. Rich

    The F-4 market has definately changed, but I think this is the end result. The spike, if you will. IIRC, 10 years ago that 1923 would have fetched $1300-$2900. 6 months ago it was around $5000.

    As far as someone losing their shirt, if you hold on to one of these for a while they gain value. It wouldn't surprise me in another 10 years if $20k+ becomes the norm for an old F-4 of that era.

    Can't help but think the Orville market will get a boost too.

    Micheal Holmes from mugwumps.com is hardly mis informed. He was the #2 bidder at $15,000.
