One of my friends is the second largest dealer in WNC. He doesn’t care anything about the cards really beyond the temporary nostalgia, but he’ll spend $4000 buying everything in stock to flip. The worst cards are still selling for $20 a piece.

Yeah, but that $20 card is worth next-to-nothing unless it is graded, and grading costs more than that now......plus you have to wait months to get them back unless you want to pay out the arse for it.
Some guys are spending 2 or 3 grand, at least, on grading cards, and they will do that a few times a year. Hell, PSA, the largest and most trusted grading company, has suspended new grading right now. They were so far behind that it will take them months to just catch up to what they have on hand, not counting what people would keep sending.
The hobby is insane right now. And very, very volatile.
