Prices went up every week, every day...
But then, new product seemingly started coming out every week with all of the new companies joining in. It seemed to render Last Week's stuff nearly unsaleable.
I couldn't get rid of Last Week's product fast enough... Manufacturer's met demand so fast. Everyone got theirs and moved on to what was next... Inventory sat on the shelves, but I still bought NEW product.

I was in undergraduate school in 87 and it was near the Topps plant.. I got as many 800 count boxes of Greenwell, Santiago, Joyner, Bonds etc. that I needed. Crazy stuff! Helped put me through school!!
