Default $5800+ for a T206 common

It's far from the same thing. The current market value of the card may be $3k, but the old-timer may only have $100 tied up in the card. If the market goes soft and the price drops to $2.5k, the old-timer is not likely to sell, but the new comer who paid $3k is very likely to be dumping his card to try and cut his loses. Just because two people own the same exact thing does not mean that the money tied up in those items is the same. This greatly affects whether a person is willing to sell or not.
