 Rise in oboe prices

Hey everyone,

This is my first post here but this has been something that has been bothering me. I recently just got back into playing oboe again after taking a few years off during college. I was kinda shocked to see that the prices are so high now... I bought both of my oboes in the mid to late 2000's and the prices seemed fair. I have a Fox 330 which I got from McFarland Double Reeds for $1,600 and a Fox 450 that I got from Hannah's for $2,850. Both oboes were less than 10 years old and in great condition. Now it seems that you have to pay mid to upper $2,000 range for Fox 330's and upper $3,000 to $4,000 range for a Fox 450.

So I guess my main reason for this post is to ask why it seems that prices have gone up?

Sorry for the rambling! Thanks
