I voted yes and don't really fit into any of those categories. I have a lot of t206s but only have 1-3 examples of most backs that aren't common and havent collected them for years. I think the prices will go up on most but not all of the backs and people say, well I can't afford a drum but I can get a bunch of other backs for that same price, and eventually it trickles down to people who can't afford Hindu's so they go after cycle, EPDG, etc.

Basically my long answer would be the rare stuff stays high, mid stuff might go up a little but the slightly tough ones will see a big increase
