I know a lot of people who are starting to sell Parkers (and other good makes). The fact is that to own a quality Parker collection is a serious investment and most of the top collectors are getting along in years. The bulk of them could afford to enjoy them the rest of their life but they choose to try to not dump the burden of disposal on their heirs while maximizing there return. Counter to the common doomsaying, they look at the current high prices as an incentive to do it now. There are a lot of Parkers on the market because there are likely more high grade and good condition Parkers on the market than maybe all the other US brands combined. Maybe not in total numbers but quality numbers.
