identify7I have already stated above that I applaud the Topps buyback program. I do so for the reasons which I stated.
However, I am concerned that the fad of collecting holders containing items of historical significance, at seriously inflated prices, will cause harm once the bubble bursts and sensible heads prevail.
The arguement that fad collectibles can not withstand a three year test of time, appears unsound in light of the support which collectors gave (and some still give) beanie babys. That fad started 12 years ago.
Topps did not create the aftermarket pricing, collectors have. We will all watch this segment of the market as its progress unfolds. I do not recommend for anyone to participate in it, unless you do so with full realization of the level of risk.
Just my opinion.
