The fact is this. Some of the people collecting cards right now are young and filthy rich. With youtube stars, athletes, rappers, and reality stars all jumping into the card collecting community this may be the new norm. I think most people here think the market is based on fake borrowed money, which is mostly false IMO. The rich people buying these cards would rather buy a slabbed PSA card instead of a piece of art. For people thinking this will crash, you may never be able to afford these cards again until it becomes uncool. Sneakerheads have been around for awhile now, if something is perceived as "cool" it can extend for a long period of time.
. Markets now are driven by celebrities and many celebrities with huge cash are in the game.
