I am planning to attend this Sunday's medal fair in Aldershot and wondered if anyone else will be in attendance?

The DoK Group to De Putron is on sale here for £2.200. This has been at auction a few times recently.

A Good Sunday AM to all. Just up and about, three cups of tea, and turned this on. I am shocked, shocked I say, with the prices shown for what appear to be rather ordinary QSA's at Aldershot in the background of the pics.
I intended to e-mail another Forum Member today about several QSA singles noted at the recent Houston Gun Show and their prices I considered high. But they are bargains compared with some of those pictured.
Am I missing the significances of something here? I understand the Pound/$ ratio is in my favor, but what?
Enlighten me please.

I have to say that I am more than a little puzzled as to why you are shocked, prices have been on the up since the late 1990's, but, this is Great Britain, not some foreign field, notwithstanding, the market is now and has been, for quite sometime, sadly driven, by certain individuals, who are certainly not medal collectors.
