Vegas Dave: The Sports Card Market will Collapse in 24-36 Months

[BRoberts]

My guess is after "Vegas Dave," whoever he is, watched the GameStop story unfold over the past few days, he got an itch to have the sportscard-investing spotlight shine on him.

Indeed it's a highly effective attention-grabbing tweet. Kudos, Vegas Dave, for knowing how to push buttons.

Social influencers drive & dive markets, but I have zero interest in their BS. I just keep collecting what I like.

Amen brother. It makes for good conversation but if you like to collect then who really cares.

Gary Vee put out a contradictory statement that we have just seen the tip of the iceberg.

FWIW, there are and have been a lot of things that have had pretty big run ups like Aaron rookies / Koufax / that are nice pieces that any collector would want to have but not rare. I think they could moderate. Soto, Acuna, Tatis rookies could dip but not crash. They could all be generational players. A lot of the new stuff has been very liberally produced and it could take a pretty big hit.

Looks like we need a cage match between Vegas Dave and Gary Vee. Might look something like this:

A man after my own heart.

As someone above says, if it crashes, I can buy more. I don't even know what the shiny stuff is so doubt I go there.

AND everyone commenting in this thread needs to read the rule in bold letters near the top of every page. Your full name needs to be out here, if you commented on Vegas Dave, or you you can edit your comments out. Thanks

who is Vegas Dave? and why would anyone care what he says?

I'm one of the n00bs bringing new money into the hobby or inflating the bubble, depending on your perspective I guess. I can't comment directly on what the future holds for sports cards. But I will say I've been collecting vinyl records for over 20 years. A "vinyl revival" began about 15 years ago (it even has its own Wikipedia page). Starting about 10 years ago I became convinced that the vinyl market was going to crash any day. I've even gone through a few waves of selling off parts of my collection thinking I'm timing it at the top and I'll be able to buy them back later for pennies on the dollar. I'm still waiting, and I've since given up any attempts to "call the top". Food for thought.
