Correct, the vast majority of cards have sold for the same amount for the last decade. The ones that have gone up in value are the HOF rookies, for the most part. A $5 common now is a $10 common in 20 years. A $2,000 HOF RC now might be an $8,000 card in two decades, keeping or exceeding pace with the rate of inflation.
