It's not just on this list. There have been other indications lately.
Every spring for many years I have been watching to see what prices
would rise to as people look forward to the summer traveling and camping
season. This is the first year that I have been able to discern much of
a decline in sales prices for Vanagon Campers since the previous season.
1.9 models have been the hardest hit. Diesels may actually have gone up,
due in my opinion to bio-diesel and greasel interest. 2.1 down slightly
I'd say. Even Ebay sales prices seem down recently. Someone got a real
bargain there a few days ago. It looked like a dealer was the high
bidder.

I'd guess that this is a natural occurrence due to various factors.
Aging owners and aging vehicles, mostly. Look for a lot of newer and
younger members to be posting soon.
