I don't know many who use book or Beckett values as a standard anymore, when there is so much real time auction house sales data and eBay sold listings just at your fingertips. Maybe those folks are asking too much or maybe they aren't.

sadly people can ask for whatever price they want
WE also have the right to not accept their price, counter offer, etc. Regarding Beckett I am not a big fan of theirs but they do have a good rep but people perceive there items as less valuable than PSA. But if you want a card and/or it is rare sometimes you have to take it in the slab you find it (and then leave it, break the slab, or get it re-slabbed

Sometimes what is crazy today might not be as crazy the next day.
I had an item for sale earlier this year - a 53/54 Briggs Meats Mays, just straight PSA authentic. Admittedly, they're not easy to find. Pre-pandemic, when they sold, it was usually $1.5k or $2k. I was asking $9k on eBay. Sat and sat and sat. A few offers rolled in from time to time, usually someone trying to score a deal, and one or two willing to get kinda sorta close. Eventually, someone came along and was willing to pay my price. About a month later, one popped up at a major auction house. By the time the bidding was over, it went for over $12k.

Likely coming to a screeching halt. Already, "top tier" cards are sitting with endless bumps. N54 is more discerning than your new collector, so only a matter of time until the sentiment spreads. Then pick up deals that are only 5x 2019 prices!

I felt I was one of the last ones to ditch Beckett's values. Then I went to a show a couple of weekends ago, and every vintage dealer pulled out a Beckett. I was like people don't really go by BV anymore. It's all about sale value, or true value.
That said, I try to pay about 10% under eBay's average prices. I won't pay over eBay, whether on Net54, Facebook (some of those posts are the worst as far as pricing cards) or anywhere else. I might pay 10% over eBay at a show becuase I can feel the card, inspect and take it home and not have to wait a week to possibly get it if the PO doesn't screw things up.
