    Sulfides

    The handmade market is showing softness right now - which to me means "BUY!". I would buy mint sulphides with good figure placement and detail without hesitation. I bought a really nice handmade last weekend at the New Philly that would have cost me twice the price in an average market - so I see the soft market segment as an oportunity.
