Card prices are so crazy that I heard an undisclosed network just signed Don West to a 5-year, $250M contract.

Get ready to purchase some Gem Mint 10s, boys!

All of which probably points to it being a good time to cash out...when this thing of ours no longer brings scorn, derision and shame from our loved ones, it is probably nearing the top of the bubble.

Well stated, Adam. My wife suggests that I sell out but knows my cards have psychic value so would never press the issue.

Hope all are healthy.

My wife still has scorn over my cards. If I buy a Cobb/ruth she gets a Chanel. Tit for tat. Question is do I tell her that they graduated from the Chanel to Birkin? Nahhhh

I would be interesting to count all the numerous threads on 54 that berate Dean, Levi, Yepdog and others for asking so much for their cards

At the time their prices were insanely high compared to others.

I was looking for some tobacco cards a few nights ago and Dean had the best overall prices by a long ways. Still to high for me though.

About Dean's Cards together with the recent Gehrig thread.

Saw on ebay Dean's has a 1926-29 Exhibit Lou Gehrig PSA 1 for sale ... $20,220.00 Wow! So tough to gauge current market for some cards that rarely come up for sale. But given the 1925 Gehrig price, do you think this $20.k is anywhere near realistic for the 1926/29 ?

Thats a huge increase over even a year ago. And then we can talk about the 1920's Ruth Exhibits - how high on these cards in today's market? Whew, pinch me I must be dreaming!

there are many desirable cards on ebay where the prices increase hundreds of percentage points on a day to day basis. Mostly fishing imo.

That one has been up at that price on ebay for a long time before the sale I believe. I'd be shocked if that one sold for that asking.

Card prices are so crazy that the wallstreetbets mob has moved on from GME and AMC and is now targeting the original penny stocks, junk wax era rookies. Long-forgotten binders full of Cory Snyder and Devon White rookies are secreted off to safety deposit boxes or traded straight-up for Lambos. PWCC auctions are no longer dominated by Kobe and Lebron, but rather by Juan Samuel and Jeff Stone. Market observers are aghast as raw 1987 Donruss Pete Incaviglia prices surge past those of 1986 Fleer Jordan PSA 10 cards.

Default Card prices are o crazy now....
That designers are working on "wearable" baseball card fashion designs"



When I pull up to a bar women are more interested in the card I'm sporting more than the car I'm driving!

Card prices are so crazy that I've simply stopped buying. Enough is enough - at least for me and what I'm willing to pay.

March 2021 will probably be the first month in approximately a decade in which I haven't bought a card.

Card prices are so high now that my Ex Wife wants to marry me again as I ended up with the card collection in the divorce, as she got to keep the jewelry.
