Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>I noticed there are quite a few more auctions this week than there were in the past couple. Not sure if its because the National is over, or maybe just because fall is cracking open the door. School starting back, football getting underway....is it just coincedence or could this mean auction prices may be about to go back on the rise across the board?

Posted By: <b>Jason L</b><p>Hey Dave,<br />Probably safe to assume activity will be picking up as people come back to their PCs after summer vacations. We'll have to see if that translates to higher prices continuing to escalate...<br />probably...<br />here's to hoping that it's a virtuous cycle (i.e. upward spiral!)<br />

Posted By: <b>Bobby Binder</b><p>Yes there has been a large increase on listings on eBay ever since the National ended. Before that in graded cards alone was running about 11,000 listings a week now it is up over 19,000.

Posted By: <b>Josh Adams</b><p>Bobby, <br /><br />That seems to make perfect sense, given the large crowds at both SGC's and PSA's tables at the National. <br><br>Go Go White Sox<br />2005 World Series Champions!

Posted By: <b>Bobby Binder</b><p>As well I am sure a lot of dealers stocked up for the National and now reducing inventory on eBay.

Prices of the cards I'm after have been on the rise since June. If they rise any further, I might have to sell off and start collecting shower curtain rings.<br /><br />BTW, if there are MORE auctions, wouldn't that suggest that prices might drop since supply is high? I understand auctions aren't a perfect economy, but still...

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>Well, Joe continues to babble incoherently in each thread he decides to partake in. A real peice of work. <br /><br />And Joe....just keep doing what your doing in your old age. I think your just tops.
