My advice (which I stated on the board before) is “the good stuff doesn’t go down in price. Buy it as soon as you can”.

What would be your one piece of advice to this collector?
My one piece of advice, don't buy high grade cards with small borders. I look at some of these graded cards, nowadays, and ask myself where did the borders go??
