Default Hot Products from the 25 Year Buying Cycle

Dennis,

Thanks for revealing what is hot in retail last year is good for you this year.

Reminds me of another concept (Joe Karbo?)...

Items that were Hot around 25 years ago will make a comback for many years before dropping off again. Due to people wanting to buy items related to their childhood.

E.g. I recall Bionic Man Dolls. I recently heard of a guy who bought one on ebay for $600 because: he'd always wanted one when he was little but his parents had never bought him one, so now that he was older and able to fund his own purchases, he bought one.

This Technique seem to be more in line with childhood items. But not All childhood items. Do you due before jumpin in.

It would mean, look for things that sold well back around 1982-ish. And stuff that sold well round 1990-ish will be coming into Demand in a few years time. I also recall an old Sowpub post/thread about this cycle.
