imo if it seems cheap it won’t be for long. anything vintage is disappearing at a fast rate, even 60’s low grade commons. boomers retiring and entering the hobby they left in the 80’s. just collect what brings you joy!

I don't disagree with your conclusion, but the boomers first left the hobby by the early 70s in general (at least in my opinion). Gen X, which is my generation, left it in the 80s only to come back later....

the boomers I know (small sample size) left after investing and collecting more modern guys in the late 80’s-early 90’s that didn’t pan out. it was a huge bubble. now they have a nice nest egg and are into grading so they jumped back in. just my 2 cents.
