Not sure what happened, but I'm not complaining...since it was my card! 
I concur with others that it is likely the perception that Green-Joyce cards are more plentiful than previously thought. They're still pretty darn rare, so I'd say the price drop is staggering! |
Congratulations on that sale! I was looking over the auction results (I didn't take anything home), thinking that the prices for some issues were a bit insane. When I saw the Hornsby, my first thought was "that's the ugliest card that I've ever seen!" and then I saw the price...
Or how about the T206 Johnny Evers With Bat - Sovereign 150 SGC 30 that went for $4600+ w/ BP??

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
