There is a casual vintage board on Reddit with a rather steady influx of new collectors and collectors returning to the hobby that have either fulfilled their "modern" wants and/or they're tired of spending big money on busting ultra-modern packs/boxes/breaks/etc.
While anecdotal, there does seem to be a steady pipeline creating vintage collectors from the non-vintage entry point.
I imagine there's other corners of the internet experiencing the same thing.
