Who immediately bought Minnie Minoso, Gil Hodges, Tony Oliva or Jim Kaat cards today, before eBay sellers were able to 'adjust' their prices waaa-aaay upward??
Decided to grab a 1970 Topps #510 Tony Oliva PSA 9 (not bad at all) OC off of COMC for (in light of his HOF election) a very decent price.

I didn't, but I think for Hodges and Minoso, a lot of the HoF bump was already priced in.

Yeah, not like Lee Smith and Baines when almost everyone was like WTF?

Never bought any today and probably wont in the future.
The real question. How many of you listed cards of those players at outrageous prices today?

Bought a Hodges earlier this week. A 1953 Bowman.

Slightly tangential:
Will Bill Dahlen cards finally come back down?

Did a quick, non-scientific examination. Searching through "SOLD" eBay auctions using the very basic "Oliva PSA," here's how many cards were sold each day of this month:
Dec. 5 (so far): 46 (The day Oliva was elected to the HOF.) Dec. 4: 3 Dec. 3: 5 Dec. 2: 4 Dec. 1: 3
