Retro is in but the economy should be taking a downturn soon?

Of course the people dropping $900K on a board made of $80 in parts 
probably aren't the ones affected.

Someone pointed out the other day that some of the pinball mania has 
sloped off as well. Fairly new machines that went from $5000 to $9000 
are down to $6000-6500. Not sure what is going on in collectable cars but 
perhaps people are moving to holding cash versus money chasing 
collectables/hard goods?

As far as jumper wires on Apple-1 you could you know, remove them? And 
swap chips back to original date code/era?

Also, on that note, which of the replica PCBs are the best? I saw the 
Italian one on eBay it looked similar?
