E-bay has become a T206 market

Let's say there are 2,000 of each T206 out there. That really is not that large a number given how many of each card are more or less permanently out of circulation at any given time. Just for perspective, consider that an average National reports attendance of about 30,000 people, there are hundreds of thousands of card collectors out there, and a press run for the Standard Catalog is many times the 2,000 figure. If even a small percentage of collectors chase T206 cards, the demand outstrips the supply, which is why there is competition for the cards. When we see T206 Cobbs dropping in price we'll know there is a glut. Until you can get one regularly for $100 I really don't think the T206 sky is falling.
