I also don't think there are many Rose rookies in 8 holders changing hands in private sales for 16k+.....
As stated with over 380 PSA 8 Rose rookies, I hope those guys have a lot of money. The longer they stay at those artificial plateaus the more will come out and the more they will have to buy to keep the prices inflated. Hopefully they buy them all and everyone else collects other things. That way they can have all of the 8s for themselves and all of their money tied up in them, with no where to go. Last person holding loses, so it seems.

Although I was initially shocked at the final price of that 52 Topps Mathews card the other night, (what really shocked me was the price jump from $8,800 to over $15,000 in the last 5 seconds) imo, that card has a far greater chance of sustaining that price than what these, Rose and other current high POP cards have based on the available numbers alone.
I am unsure the POP of the Mathews, but I'd bet multiple high priced Rose cards, it is far far less than those.
