There's been a lot of talk ("maybe too much talk" for you U2 fans) about the rising prices, and how crazy it's gotten (and how much it sucks) for us true collectors, but even if the bubble bursts when the COVID nightmare disappears, I don't think it's truly going to 'end' anytime soon. The cards you mentioned, especially things like Ryan and Seaver rookie cards, have skyrocketed to a (I f*cking hate this term) new normal, and I believe they are going to pretty much stay up there (forever or for a long while). Once people can get out of their houses and spend money on other means of entertainment and such, card prices will surely take a hit, but it doesn't seem like it will happen quickly and as drastically as we are hoping for. The cards we're suddenly being forced (I know, we're not actually being forced) to pay a lot more for are probably going to remain up there in the ether.
