right vintage card collectors aren't growing on trees....I just saw an auction where last week I would of bid for sure on 1952 topps psa 7s low numbers..bidding ended at 130 for all 3 cards....last week I bid for sure..and it goes up to 150...maybe whoever bid 130 would of also bid on it more and it goes higher...point is if I were to sell those cards at whatever I won them for.....they sell for 130 if no new bidders on the scene ..or maybe one bidding slot higher that I paid for them...and I eat the premium....
that's why people are usually disappointed when re-selling common cards within a few years ...theres no clone bidders of them.....
