When DaG 262 first came onto the market, the going rate was $25,000-30,000/gram, and most serious collectors quickly and gladly paid it, for actual lunar material. (I know from personal experience. ;-) Today one can get lunar material for 10% of that, with a little effort. Was that because dealers or some shadowy forces somehow manipulated the prices down, or was it because there was a sudden explosion of lunar material coming out of the deserts? If the world's gold supply somehow became ten times greater, don't you think the price of gold would go down? It's the same material - gold is gold - according to you, the price shouldn't change, right? Gasoline is gasoline, the price should never change, right? (OK, that's a loaded question these days, but you get the point).
