I agree. My 22 year old son has gotten back into collecting over the last two years. He is into the Bowman Chrome prospect game. Lately he has been taking the proceeds from this and buying HOF Baseball and Football RC for his personal collection. A year ago he wouldn’t have been interested in vintage at all. I think the new shiny stuff gets their foot in the door and in time I think some gravitate towards vintage.
