When i think of supply and demand with baseball cards, my thoughts immediately turn to the 1973 Topps #615 Mike Schmidt rookie card. It's part of the high series, so the number of copies 'should' be limited, but check ebay any time, night or day, and there are too many cards available to count. Check the sold listings, and the numbers continually grow. Many sales are completed day after day (and this is an expensive card whether it's graded or not). Supply truly isn't low at all, but the demand (probably due to it being the key to the 1973 set) has always been through the roof. Take from this whatever you may.
