Question for the Old Timers----2010 Dollar Devaluation

[UpTheAlley]

some numbers:
Quantitative Easying has exploded hard commodities price increases of (food stuffs, softs, etc..on a p.a. 100% to 400%.
Now pricing THAT in DOLLARS we have witnessed an -7% Currency Devaluation in just the last MONTH for a p.a. compnd of a 255% Inflation Rate!!!
Now who's wages is going up 7% a month? let alone a rate of 255%??

ok, reason I ask this is, is there an vintage or baseball "asset" valuation model within the secondary markets that triggers a price valuation correction to vintage cardboard/collectible markets across the board? Any collectible/industry "Economist" "Economic Publisher" within the Vintage Collectible Industry or cards in general to reflect these underlying fundamental economic dynamics? If not, why not?

or is it truly predicated upon the knowledge of buyer and seller?

Any insight would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I would say that it comes down to knowledge plus supply and demand, higher inflation, higher comparative prices and people spend less money because they have less money. So prices over a period of time will fall. But rare items will still sell high because the only individuals purchasing these items aren't as affected by an above average, with average being 3%, inflation increase.
