I agree that Rob has more people spending 50K in an auction than the average auction, however I think that is because he only has one auction a year, and his per lot average is probably higher than everybody else for that reason.
Lets say Rob has 30 people spend over 50K in his auction. Those 30 people probably spend about that much in all other auctions combined over the course of a year.
Mark absolutely hit the nail on the head. The good stuff is always good. Collectors and Investors both want it keeping the price high. It is that way in coins, stamps, cards, etc. Everything else will rise and fall depending on the economy or a couple of collectors entering or leaving the market.
