PSA has stopped accepting submissions

[Touch'EmAll]

Any thoughts if the current crazy market prices might be pushed even higher for PSA stuff in general ? I'm gonna hesitantly say, yes.

My guess would be the opposite of this.

New is going to stay a overpriced game of hot potato.

After we all get out of the house the insanely overpriced vintage will drop back to before the Covid run up in prices. Except Mantle, he will remain extremely overpriced.

I’m not sure I buy this. You think everyone who entered the hobby leaves?

I think there is too much cash in the system and I also think social media has made card collecting cool again.

Yes I do think they all leave when they can go back to the things they found to be way more fun before. I could be wrong and it would be far from the first time.

Well, I guess that solves my problem about having a couple packs graded...

Agreed. Did you catch Barret-Jackson last week? Thursday and Friday usually pretty sedate, this year it was weekend prices from the get go, 75k cards going for 200k, the commentators were blown away. This isn't going to end until it ends badly.

Is there another business out there that actively and consciously shuts its doors to more customers / sales?

Yes anything that has a limited preset number. Happens in collector issue physical media all the time. They’ll issue say 1000 units but there are 3000 people that want one instantly and they now it but creating an after market helps them sell the next release and so on.

The biggest regret former Starbucks CEO Howard Shultz had was to not slow down growth for a few months and fix some of the operational issues the company had. It took years for him to eventually fix those problems.

somebody offered me 100, then 125 and finally 150K the other day on a drive around the block in the Resto Mod. It was tough not to say "Here's the Keys fatso". He said it would cost him 200 to build it today if he could find someone to do it. There is a year wait at most good builders. VROOOOMMMMMM

Nice ride Chuck. My uncle had a white/blue 74 with the HO 455. My cousin and I used to beat the hell out of it back in the day.
