Lots of my friends have drastically ratcheted back their purchases since last summer. I imagine the same is true of many others. That sort of pullback won't affect the ultra high priced stuff but definitely the four figure stuff if it is pervasive.

I've also noticed an increasing attitude of wait and see on many buyers' parts--we may be heading into a period where expectations of a decline in card prices actually fuel the decline.

Which is why it is best to "invest" in cards you like. Most of my stuff my family will have to pry from my cold, dead fingers...

Also, wasn't Yorktown the guy who went Bk and took a bunch of Mastro money with him? Buy high, sell low--not a formula for success...
