No kids are buying Panini's Diamond rookie cards (Simmons). On the other hand, bidding shows five bidders with boatloads of transactions willing to pay > $10,000. I'm obviously missing something. It is hard for me to believe that prices based upon a contrived low supply will be maintained over time.
