But Bingo on the youth collecting vintage. There are tons of facebook groups trading and collecting vintage. Albeit they are looking for beaters, when they get older and have more disposable income, they will be looking to upgrade their beaters...

I'm sorry I didn't make my post more clear. The economy has absolutely been improving recently, but for the good part of two decades, it was in decline/stagnant, yet prices still increased on these cards.
I think my generation, as much as I try to distance myself from them, learned from their parents' errors when it came to card collecting, and are going for the timeless, classic cards that are no longer being produced and show true history.
