The answer and probably the solution to #2, is that 3-4 of the big Registry guys got out for various reasons and the other few have completed their sets(upgrading sporadically), and there was not enough demand on the higher end cards to keep the prices at prior levels.
So....until a few serious high end Registry set collectors get back into the various E series they will probably remain soft, except for the key HOFers. At this point even the high grade commons and lower tier HOFers are on sale until they see a reemergence in set collectors.
