Which reminds me, when I was in Florida recently I visited a number of
antique stores/malls and saw typical prices for average condition
Holmes viewers around $150 US.

This was somewhat shocking because typical prices around Toronto
are in the $70 - $80 CDN range (about $50 US).

Are the prices I saw in Floriday actually typical of antique store prices
in the US? Or are they higher there because of the tourist effect?
