As for my opinion about 1980-1993 cards, I think you will find that Hall of Famers' cards will increase, but the rest will be left in the dust. It's slowly happening now. What I think will actually bounce back in value will be Starting Lineup figurines. How many of those will still be in boxes in 25 years? My son saw mine and asked if he could play with them. Since they hold almost no value, I said sure. Starting Lineup figures, with card and/or poster will make a comeback.
Well if you think about common players from the overproduced era, yes there will never be a ton of interest in them. After all, unless something weird stokes the market (90 Hoops Mark Jackson with Melendez Bros in background, 90 Fleer Jose Uribe (hype for no reason), 89 Pro Cards Keith Comstock (ESPN Story),.... but I don't really see any hope for 1988 Topps Claudell Washington cards at this point or in the future.
