I do notice a lot of T206's hitting the market. Along with what seems to be a half dozen Aaron RC's, Koufax RC's, many early Mantle's, Ryan RC's and other vintage mid/high grade major HOFers that can all be in the same auction. The prices still seem strong and the market apparently is able to absorb all this seemingly rarer vintage/pre-war. A lot of supply, but also a lot of demand I guess.
If you look closer, the copies that have great centering and other eye appeal aspects are in the minority. Seems like those are the ones commanding strong prices. And the lesser eye appeal cards might be down thus lending support to the claim, "prices are now soft."
