I totally get you. Some cards I desired have appeared out of reach now. But I love collecting too much to stop. I take the advice of more seasoned collectors, if you buy quality items the prices will be retained.
Psychologically, I had to transition to cards that I can still afford. I've moved back into junk wax (the era of my childhood), MiLB, and collecting the Cincinnati Reds. The wow factor isn't the same, but the thrill of the hunt remains which is what I guess I yearn for.
