Current state of the hobby-Modern cards

[1952boyntoncollector]

i notice that the chase cards for modern that go for 10-50 bucks for the current year people bid on ebay on but the next year they drop and keep dropping besides the ohtanis and witts....on to the next year chase.

in the old sets we all loved every card in a set...now its just certain subsets...the level of love is much thinner..i just dont see 18 year olds today paying big money to build these subsets in their 40s and older when they have more money

i do see that with pokemom cards that are played with and certain cards to them are like the 1950s mantles that we couldnt afford in are youth but some of us can and do pay. I can see certain pokemon cards that are $ 1000 or so now to buy that kids cant afford but will be paying much more than than 30 years later as they are cards of their youth and lore that that were playing with and not just chasing for a sub set for one year than on to the next
