At the pace he's going, he'll catch up to TBP for total posts just in time for the 2026 World Series.

If this was about buying FROM "The Dip", there was this one dipsh*t I bought a card from at the National that took too long to buy because he needed to tell me his life story first.

Checked his profile thinking it wasn't that many.. nope 21 posts a day on average

Dip was Sept-Dec in the olden days. Stackin FatBoys in the '19 offseason was free money.

Then the peak would be Feb-Mar, but lately it seems to have moved earlier. I'm not sure anymore.

This is about right. Peak was typically around Opening Day, but last year it was when pitchers and catchers reported (mid Feb.). This year the dip was in that Sept-Dec range. I'm hoping for a normal peak this year, in the middle of Spring Training at the very least.

Thankfully just his. I don't think I could have toughed out the family tree version.

Truth. This is the first year in a while where I have not seen much dipping outside of a Skoal can. A lot of stuff just keeps going up. I'm winning fewer auctions on eBay the past couple months as a result.

The Vlady Jr market got silly cheap around Sept-Oct-ish. I made two pickups. It corrected slightly in Nov-Dec when people realized he’s entering a contract year.
