I think quality is holding up much better than quantity (eg ultra modern base) but I'm not sure that necessarily a bad thing as that's where some air needs to be let out to normalise things again. I do think a value level service at PSA needs to come back though so we can find a stable landing. Wax is too high as well, peoples expectations are being based on the price they are paying for a box rather than a realistic view of EV inside.
There's also maybe a bit of expectation adjustment going on as well. There was an expectation maybe that as Messi and Ronaldo wind down the baton would pass straight to the youngsters but the reality is that none are in a position to take over just yet and the likes of Benzema, Lewa, Salah, KdB, Neymar, etc are going to have a couple of years in the sun first.
I've been buying fewer boxes and doing far far less breaks over the last year and focusing on buying the key cards I want for my PC and am far happier for it.
