[needmore]

I restarted collecting baseball cards in 2005 (after a 13 year hiatus), and only bought vintage baseball through 2011. In that time, I saw prices go up even during the recession. I mostly buy ungraded vintage (vg-ex or ex condition) for my personal collection, but every once in a while I will sell some to buy some other cards. I almost always seem to make a little money on vintage or at least break even.
