"I am wondering if those of you who frequent the card shows and hobby shops can tell me if the recent surge (over the last year) in prices in caramel cards is an eBay phenomenon or if it is across the board? It seems like a handful of collectors have spurred the price increase in caramels (E94s, E97s, E98s, etc. in particular)and have driven up the final prices much like a handful of collectors on eBay have driven the prices of T207 scarce back cards out of sight and 2x, 3x and even 4x book."

Tbob, there is a difference between a collector, and a speculating slabhead.
The views of the apple of their eyes couldn't be furher apart.
One views it with an unconditional love affair, and the other with what can it get for me later.
The slab was created as a selling point, and not as a saving factor.
Is there an album on the market that can hold over 600 hundred slabbed T206's or T210's?
Would YOU want to carry it around? 
What say an album put out by PRO?
Knowing that we don't have any slabheads here at Slab Haven, we can all smile at the above.
Keep smiling folks, it's only cardboard.
