He has not stopped buying. What he did was scare the market and induced selling.

Pete, No, but very close to being complete. I have been told by numerous people, including him by email, that he was on hold from aggressively pursuing T206s....

I just came out of the cave. Who is David Hall and what's the history of him buying rare backs and for how long?

He is a huge collector, has almost a master set. Have you ever heard of a whale? He has one of the greatest T206 collections ever assembled. So I've heard.

Too bad about that missing Broadleaf 460. I wonder if Jaime will ever sell?

David Hall is not collecting backs anymore according to him. Yes, he was a founder of PSA....

+1 ??

I have sold him many cards, either thru me or thru another party. I was told by all quite a while back that he was on hold from buying T206s....His interests were in other aspects of business...

He decided to sell his collection, but hasn't begun doing that in a 6 month time frame(rumor started around the time of the national last year) and no one can tell you who will sell it, or when, or anything other than the fact that he said he will.

Additionally, there have been rumblings from various people that have done deals with him for particular rare backed cards. More than one. I strongly suspect that was done to shake up the market. I could be wrong, but I am a gambling man. If I am correct, it would be a pretty smart move. If you thought everyone was taking advantage you when you purchase something, wouldn't you want to mix it up and bring prices down if you are buying?
