The thing you haven't factored in is the cost of labor and materials. That has more than doubled in some places post-Covid. And technically we are just now recovering from the last sports card crash that started end of 2021 and may have already bottomed out. So if you are waiting for the next crash cycle, it could take a few years.

But going back to cost, even if the market "crashes" you'll never see a $670 case of Jumbo again because it now costs more than that for shops and distributors to acquire. I'm also not expecting my grocery bill to go back down either though. A flatline of where we are at now is the more likely outcome IMO.
I just recently picked up 2023 topps series 2 jumbo case for $480.......
