Pretty much all collectibles are in that same category. So much money is out of the financial markets and burning a hole in people's pockets.

I'd welcome a HUGE bubble pop to clear out all the investors and allow true collectors to actually have fun in the hobby (again).

+1

I'd gladly watch my collection's value fall significantly if it meant I could then get everything I want at the corresponding "discount".

I predict that someone will find a T206 common with a small bit of missing ink on the back. All similar cards will then sell for 3x the previous value.
Whoops, I forgot the smiley face. Happy New Year!

I predict that a seller on ebay will actually go against the grain and NOT suggest that the card he is selling is "UNDERGRADED."

Amen to that. Or “high end”. Can’t tell you how many MINT 9’s I’ve seen with “high end” added to the description. Duh! That’s why it was graded MINT 9 dumbass.

If I was younger, in graduate school, and searching for a topic for my PhD thesis, I would choose the following.
