However, I thought the market for type cards and rare backs topped out around 3 or 4 years ago when I quit collecting. I was hoping to come back and get items cheaper than what I sold them for. That was not the case, by far.

I predict items will continue to increase (some very significantly) - especially the really rare cards. Even tough cards such as T207's, caramels, etc. will go up even though people are complaining about prices right now.

Being a collector, I don't like it, but I have come to accept it. This is a reason I have cards I am not selling right now, even though I don't collect them. Just waiting for the right time to unload them to make a little profit for other purchases.
