You'd have to throw a shitload of $$$$ at high grade jordan rookies/2nd years to corner the market and create increased demand at this fake price point. A lotta time and a lotta money.

Right but at least if you buy a stock you are paying what the collective wisdom of the entire world says it's worth at that given moment. You aren't paying what some unscrupulous dealer suggests you pay (I still love the guy who reviewed all his bids with Brent beforehand and ended up buying a recolored special at some staggering price) or your buddies on Twitter or what you think might push up the value of your other ones so you can dump them or whatever.
