Is this just the mid season modern slump coming early?

There are millions of each junk wax base card. There may be 15k Luka prizm PSA 10s, but that's still a substantial % of the run. Compare PSA 9s and under on a griffey base rookie to Luka prizm base and you'll see what I mean.

Say they are overpriced, or overproduced, but comparing it to junk wax is such a fabrication.

I looked at 2012 prizm pop reports as a reminder again and it really makes you think... I can’t wait to see the crazy number of 2020. I think a big problem is the parallels.

Everyone collects differently. Aside from numbered 1/1’s (since they are pop 1 with or without grading), give me a PSA 10 of the 10 cards with the HIGHEST number of cards graded on the pop report, over a PSA 10 of the 10 cards with the lowest pop ALL day, ANY day.

Tip: Popular cards of popular players.

If you really want to disprove that the 19-20 rookies are special, find another year where this many 2nd year players are averaging 10+ points.

That’s a flawed premise because counting stays have never been easier to accumulate. You don’t even have to go back generations, just a decade ago there was twenty less points scored a game.

While I think each side here is arguing in extremes and the truth is closer to the middle...I would skew toward the other side some as the NBA card market more than any other has been driven by the highest end superstars and sets. You’d be hard pressed to find any value to a 20ppg great type player, much less guys that are simply solid and scoring in the teens.

Well, guys that are scoring in the teens in the beginning of their 2nd season, for clarification. It would be different if their was no upward trend in their career arc, like if they average the same amount thru their 3rd season, then sure put a fork in them. As long as they're young and progressing statistically there will always be a market.
