and consider this.....I'm assuming must of you have go to Nationals. The recent ones I've been too I'd say the vast majority of buyers/shoppers are over 50. Yes there are youngsters, but nowhere near the amount of over 50's.
And who sets up selling these nice cards?
I'd say 95% of those with tables are guys over 50.
Where will those tables be when they are all gone in 30 years.
Covid was the Perfect Storm, hit right when the most collectors had their most money, and drew in new people who wanted a slice of the pie.
The Collector Pool will thin greatly.....just give it a week or 2 and there will be a thread about some longtime collector who died. There is one every other week if you have not noticed.
