Sam, perhaps that was the wrong word, but then again it's never been that hard to find midgrade centered examples, has it? Why all of a sudden when these same cards, well centered, have been selling at much lower levels for years?
Again, we're talking about rapid and dramatic price increases, not a gradual rise over time.
