I focus on collector grades and great looking cards just below it. The current spike has moved me to the sidelines. I知 having a very difficult time finding reasonable deals. Although I don稚 worry about the investing repercussions, I do want to stretch my dollars so that I can increase my purchase quantities.
Although I hate not buying, I知 still earmarking cash for future purchases. I値l sit back and continue letting my war chest grow. Hopefully, the market will return to a reasonable level, and I can return to knocking off cards on my want list.

Exactly the same on my end - It appears that I have the "patience of Job" - I am long past buying the 1st thing that pops up - a "war chest" is a good thing.
