I actually agree to a point Leon.

It often is not as much supply and demand, but a combination. Some very rare sets have little supply and little demand, some type collectors might battle for them but they are a tough sale at times. On the contrary these error also have a small market, but player collectors like myself will pay large premiums for our guys. The demand is small, the supply is small and prices can skyrocket on the right day. Wrong day and you get a fiver.

As to those Mick's and Jordan's I am in the small camp that eventually those that want them will have them due to the supply and prices will equalize. Not bottom out, but equalize. Likely it will be Mick before Jordan as the collector crowd for Jordan is younger. However, if PSA starts grading the Star sets, I will revise that prediction to much sooner. Supply to me, is usually the long term winner. But I think in decades, not years.
