Omnious sign in market?

That’s my understanding.

I guess that helps the AH, financially speaking. However, I wonder how many bidders they lose because not everyone wants to spend countless hours in extended bidding.

Staying up late is one thing. Waking up the following day to find the auction still going is sheer absurdity.

I look at it like this:

EVERYTHING went up during the pandemic.

Now pandemic is basically over, "many"(but not all) things are coming back down.

So 100% went up.

Now maybe 80% coming back down, but not all the way down.

I've yet to see anything come back down to pre-pandemic pricing. Things shot so high up plenty of room to fell back some, but not falling all the way down, but significant drops from those big highs at the height of the madness.

So again:
About 80% coming down.
20% still getting strong record prices.

My 2 cents.....which was 6 cents 6-9 months ago.

Signed cards...never been stronger. See memory lane

Just to clarify I don’t expect to see pre-pandemic prices again but would not be surprised to see a modest retrenchment from recent highs. I can speak only to T206 where prices appear to have plateaued recently as month over month real estate and stock prices have declined.

At some point in time it just happens...
