I wouldn't say that prices have settled down. Earlier this year, the #1 Desert Shield set on the PSA registry sold for $75,000 at auction. The attention from that auction attracted some new collectors to the set.
The set also had renewed interest in 2012 because the premiere card of the set is Chipper Jones RC, and as we all know 2012 was MLB's continous episode of Farewell Chipper. The Chipper in a PSA 9 has moved from a $250 card in 2008 to a $500-$600 card today.
