That said, I’m not a set builder, and I don’t buy non-HoFers, so Doyle never interested me. I would have voted real estate, but if I’m being honest, I divested some big cards last year to buy cars and a boat. Far worse investments than cards or real estate. 😂 But the new acquisitions are a ton of fun and were worth parting with a few cards sitting in a bank vault.

I've often thought about this too, where are the 25-35 year old T206 collectors right now? Are they still churning modern but will soon discover the beauty of T206? Why aren't they here learning about the set from the incredible knowledge base on Net54? When every 60+ collector is dead what will the landscape look like? Nobody really knows. Will the corporate shills keep pumping T206 to young collectors for profit?, unfortunately I think this will be the case. Will prices come down on the cards we cherish? Only if there's more sellers than buyers, and that can happen in any collecting cycle. Until then it's still a pretty fantastic ride.
