Nearly everyone in this thread has defended the scarcity of high grade vintage baseball cards and that therefore they have nowhere to go but up. As a homeowner who has seen my house skyrocket in value in the six years since we bought it, I am certainly paying attention to all the news reports that suggest the housing market may be a bubble waiting to burst. And everybody needs a place to live; nobody technically needs baseball cards. Does anybody else feel like I do that the vintage card market may just be a bubble ready to burst? Low pop or not, if the economy goes through any radical changes baseball cards may not seem very important. As we often say, they are only cardboard. Am I the only one who feels this way?
