Baseball cards are in the same boat in terms of demand, although the prices for most are not increasing that much. At least in the last few months, and in certain areas of the country. I've gone from selling a few cards from my hall-of-famer collection per year to multiple people asking to pay for my entire collection. And people are asking whether I have football, basketball, and hockey cards. Which has literally never happened before.

Sports cards in general have gotten to the point of absurdity.

Grown men fighting each other in the aisles of Walmart trying to clear the shelves of NBA cards. The Michael Jordan PSA 10 went from $100k, to $370k to over $700k very rapidly, and has since declined back to around 300k or so. People are buying retail boxes from scalpers for like 5x, just purely on hype and FOMO.

As someone whose been into cards before the covid meltdown, this has all been wild.
