I think the global economic down trend means folks don't have those extra $ to spend on buying glass. That same economic trend also means lots of people don't have extra $ to buy things like lampwork or jewelry, which adds to the not buying as much glass. Hopefully the upcoming holiday season will help the market.
I don't sell my work often, it's more for the pleasure of the making and for gifts, and hadn't bought any new glass for a quite a while before one of Franz's last sales. But the order did include several CiM colors I hadn't tried before now.
And, yeah, I miss Vetrofond too - there's going to be an unhappy camper here when my stocked up favorites are gone for good
