I'm looking forward to going to the National this year but I am grounded about it. I have saved up for it with 2-3 cards I need in mind. I know what I need will be there but I also know the high prices that are going to be asked.
I see this year's National as a high water mark on the hobby (specifically Pre War/T206). With a Recession looming with increased inflation, if prices are completely insane, I'll just wait another 6 months to a year to grab what I need. I'll be walking the floor, looking to see if I can sell certain items as well.
Prices won't drop, but they should level off, and more cards will also become available.
