Not sure if it is because there are less repair guys - unlikely....or if more people are buying estates and opting to send them for repair rather than buy new because of economic conditions - more likely.....or some other reason.
Buy estate and send for repair seems a likely answer. You can go on ebay and buy a used and less than perfect dunhill for $100 if you get lucky, then send it out for repairs. If you always wanted a dunhill and you're not a collector, that right there is an inexpensive way to play.
