Default Steve Novella's PSA 8 T206 Auctions--A Market Defining Event?

Posted By: T206Collector

Are very contemporary. They are based on "pop" which is not necessarily stagnant and, in all likelihood, will change for many (if not most) of these cards. Moreover, they rely on PSA which is hardly the favorite grading company among pre-war collectors.

I think sharp, high grade cards are really sweet -- assuming they're unaltered. But if you are buying them based on a pop report in 2007, don't expect that the pop report will either be the same -- or, more importantly -- mean the same thing in 1, 2, 5, or 10 years from now.

It is the pre-war equivalent of collecting LeBron James 1 of 1 signature cards.
