Maybe same person, he was several different posters in the stolen 51 Mantle thread.

Myslabs is just as bad if not worse. People looking for 50-100% over recent
prices. I'm willing to pay a bit more for nicer cards but not that much.

Fortunately, this is cards, not insulin: we don't have to buy it at any price just to stay alive. There's no need to get frustrated about some dweebs who overprice their eBay listings. In the end the universe tends to work out as it should. Besides,



...it's just baseball cards, damnit!

I see zero signs of the market slowing down. Wait for REA, Mile High and REA to end this week. The good stuff will blow out the lights Selling Super Strong. The US consumer is super strong they don’t care, they’re spending, they’re traveling, check the interstates and airports, jammed. I’ve had several dealers tell me they’ll sit on it until it runs hot again. They made so much money the past two years they're ok with waiting. They can hold it. Are they fools? Who knows, time will tell.

I had something similar recently. I was watching a card in the very low 4 figures on eBay and the seller sent an offer for $25 off. That told me he was not interested in selling the card.

Have you checked the price of Brady LeBron Kobe etc. etc. recently? They have cratered. I see a lot of vintage subtly softening as well, though not nearly so dramatically. High end auctions do not define the market.

Not talking about modern just High Quality Centered Blue Chip Vintage

Well ok but your comment referenced the "market." What you just described is maybe a tenth of one percent of the market.
