Price of Cheap Models in Russia

| Well, let me be this guy behind a curtain :-) Actually many cheap models are worth approximately $2 or even less on the Russian market. There is also an unfair competition with the Asian manufacturers as all Asian goods (or at least most of them) have to be imported offically and many of the models are sold on the "black market", they never went through an official records, no taxes, some were stolen, some made using old molds thrown away by the previous manufacturer, etc.etc. Also the "local" interest to "local" models helps in this competition now. I am trying to follow the mood of "general public collectors" - mostly kids, and I have to say that they are drifting away slowly but surely from the Russian models...
