d359 are dirt cheap compared to prices years ago.

I am one of these "former" type card collectors who no longer is!!!

Pete - you did a complete 100% reversal in 60 days on your thoughts on T216's....again all based on ONE evening. Just what kind of expert are you???

Come on Dave. I don't think Pete's post deserved that though I do think the BST BS was uncalled for.

As an expert on opinion reversal, 60 days is an appropriate time frame to change one's view.

I've changed my opinion ...45 days is more appropriate .

The demand for E121-80's hasn't changed much, but our knowledge of what is in the set has been changing considerably. Does that count?

I like approaching this subject as Mark has, and I agree with him...the E121 80Series has changed the most over the past decade. The perceived availability of this set has changed drastically over time, with multiple cards being removed from official checklists, different back types identified, rarities determined, and even cards (like the Meadows, as shown in the current E121-80 thread) that eluded discovery for 90+ years. And I feel it still has a lot of room for more change.

And my post #4 you took offense to in the BST thread wouldn't have happened had post #3 not have occurred.

T216 beaters have taken a turn south in the last few months.

I'm not saying you're wrong...but where are you getting that info? That's not what i'm seeing on vintagecardprices.

A legitimate offer was made and you kind of went off on the guy.....that started it. I didn't take offense, I could care less, I was only saying why the rules were bent for that thread. (*as I stated in it)

Well we have differing views on a legitimate offer. 10%-15%....ok. 50%??? I'll admit, T216's aren't sold every day like T206's. So of course there is some room for argument on their "current" value. But if I want something and its on the BST for TWICE what I feel it's worth - I can assure you I'm not asking the guy if he'll take half of his asking price and especially in the thread. To each their own.

the set I have noticed is the e90-1 which use to be had for cheap.
