Curious if anyone has any thoughts on if this historic election might have an impact on card sales..... last night made me wonder if sales will dip on higher end stuff as people hold onto their money in uncertain times.

    Little to no effect, probably slightly negative in the short run as volatility/risk cause people to avoid big expenses.

    Prices will plummet. Buying all centered Mantles and Jordan at low beckett, April 1989 prices.

    I don't think so

    Can I get in on that action?

    I know a lot of rich people who are besides themselves with happiness. Like Christmas as a kid.

    The market futures were down over 800 for a moment last night and the DOW sits up 4 points as I type.

    I could see it helping card prices if the funds from overseas are brought back and the corporate income tax is lowered. More money in people's hands.

    No politics on the forum please - it just invites bickering between people with different opinions/views and this is not the venue for that discussion.
