It is simple. When collectors see that the prices are the same (or go down), they don’t buy, waiting for better deal. When prices are going up collectors are afraid that they will be higher tomorrow and buy the order or medal. If you need a Star of Hero of USSR, not too many dealers have it; you probably would buy it now for $3500.00 (blaming your self for not buying for $2900.00) but the same time being afraid that it will be $4500.00 tomorrow. I think this is the main reason of raising prices today.
