Yes I know to early to compare but he has the Yankee factor those 3 don't. I can see a slight drop but anyone expecting cards to be 50% or more less than they are now are going to be greatly dissapointed
Untrue on Bryant actually. "Some" of his card values did drop between the end of year 1 and middle of year 2. If you remember 2016, it took him like 20 games to hit a dinger. He also ended 2015 (playoffs and end of season) in somewhat of a dry spell. You could get his auto's and RC's very reasonably priced at the time....they had dropped off some since initial market hype. Especially the Panini issued stuff.
If Trout had a drop I think it was last year.....but you are pretty much right on him.
Harper definitely had a buying opportunity too. I think it was a last year but maybe the year before? There was a time there where I saw a lot more of his stuff in people available trade as his value was slipping but his book prices remained high, so people tried to trade on those book prices while they remained up (Beckett was slow to recognize the market...)
