I remember a story in SCD many, many years ago of a collector buying up all the cards of a common player (1958 Topps I believe) in the northeast area.
Once the card started getting hard to find, the dealers starting asking higher prices for the card. This fellow would then refuse to buy at that higher price.
He created the scarcity...made the prices go up...then refused to pay it.
Classic! I love it!
Anyone else remember this story from years gone past??
