This is happening in real estate and the auto market. If I'm bored I'll engage them and ask, "Why would I want to sell my house/car right now?" They go into their spiel about how much I can get. "OK," I say, "then I have to buy a replacement. What does it matter if I can sell my house for a billion dollars if that billion dollars isn't enough to get a new one?"
Every one of them stops trying to sell me at that point.
