Yup, same here. When times are good, FOMO kicks in. When sentiment changes, demand evaporates quicker then it came on. I always use the example of the 90s, when we had Dads fighting over cases of Upper Deck french hockey at 300 a box. 12 months later you couldn't give these away and they likely never reach the price they hit in 1990. Obviously vintage is a completely different beast, but when demand leaves a market, look out, prices on highly available, widely traded stuff can go to near zero.
