I think over the next 12 months, you will do a little better buying now in some cases and a little worse in others, probably evens out in the long run. Either way, you won’t see anything like the difference between buying in early 2021 and today.

Not sure it has to be either/or. Maybe think about buying stuff over time, so you get the benefit of some dollar cost averaging. If the market moves down, then you can capitalize on it because you kept some dry powder. And if prices move up, then you still have the cheaper pieces that you purchased earlier.

If you're buying because you enjoy the hobby and want to complete a set or some other hobby goal, then it shouldn't matter unless you're spending money that was supposed to be for your retirement.
If you're an investor, then shake the Magic 8-Ball or call Ms. Cleo and you'll get no sympathy from a lot of real collectors (that try to enjoy the hobby for the right reasons) if you happen to lose your butt on the "investment".
