Talking to guys that i know that sell sports memorabilia they have been saying for the last two years that its on a downhill run and they moved to other venues to avoid losing their shirt on it. Sports are no longer favorable or important to a mast majority of the public, and after that whole taking a knee **bleep** it really left a foul taste in the mouth of those who were still avid fans. I know hardcore sports fans that dumped all their stuff and remodeled their tv rooms and mancaves to be non-sport related. Its dying, and its dying hard!! HS sports are fighting to keep full teams, even before Covid hit, kids aren't interested in sports, and the older they get the more sports will die as the generations pass the torch.
I suspect that major league sports will be dead in the next 10-15 years, i have heard some say 5-10 years, but i suspect they will try to hold on a lot longer. Some new sports stadiums that were going to be built got put off indefinitely, and then Covid hit and they sold the land and canceled the project due to projected income loss.
Buying and selling sports stuff is going to be a tough market to be in soon, it might come back around as nostalgia sales though, but even that stuff has died hard. People don't have much fun money to spend anymore, if it wasn't for the other work i do besides eBay my sales alone wouldn't support me anymore, but a couple years ago sales alone were enough to keep me working 40 hour weeks. The world is changing!
