I wonder if the PSA registry is still capturing the imagination of people like it did in the past. Once guys stop engaging in "collection measuring" contests about who has a top 5 or 10 or 20 registry set, it seems like a lot of cards of less desirable fellows will take a dive. Not saying it's happening or will happen. Not a registry guy and never have been, but it's a weird dynamic that has nouby really skewed the demand curve.

It doesn't matter how many Paul Bunyans you bring to the collecting forest, they'll never bring the mighty Mantles, Cobbs, Ruths, Jackies, etc., down, so I wouldn't hesitate in buying (if they're priced right) those types of big names now before they continue to grow higher and higher. The other 'regular' HOFers? That's just a crapshoot.

I think if you're talking about buying players like Ruth or Cobb you should buy now. They seem to be bulletproof. I'm sure there was a time when Cobbs first crossed say $200 and collectors thought that was crazy. But it never went back down.
