    Chris from Baseball Card Collector Investor Dealer did a similar video last week. We recorded this video before his came out, so there was no intention to copy, and thankfully our lists are quite different. But we wanted to give him a shout out for a great video. Here is his: ua-cam.com/video/W092Pozvg0c/v-deo.html

    If you got into this in 2020, then chances are you lost pretty much across the board. If you got back into in 2015 like I did, you made out. Even if I held on to some that I should've sold, still not out anything. Also, like you said, vintage is subjective like an art piece. You may have 2 PSA 8's, one has better color, other has better centering, etc.. You pay for what you want to see visually. Just out of curiosity, why did you show the sale from 23, it looks like it's back over 1M now?

    With the ridiculous prices of these cards I think there's a lot of money laundering going on. Or maybe a lot of drug money laundering. Even on these auction sites there's probably a lot of money laundering going on also.

    I use the 5 year rule. He may be hot, then not. Or 'who's he' to superstar.
    One or two years is not enough time to tell.
    If you spend a million dollars on a card, it's a piece of paper with a picture on it and can be destroyed by a small amount of water. More money than common sense.

    its because of people like mr hello here complaining about the diddy stiff and making remarks like is he going to be diddied .... I mean he very possibly might end up that way .. but when you talk about that and his card going down because of that then you don't have room to complain when the price drops
