I think you're right.
I also think there's a bit of a sea change with buyers trading down to 2nd year cards. It seems like prices on a lot of those pieces have risen a bit more due to that trading down effect. "If I can't get the rookie because it's so bloody expensive, then I'll pick up the 2nd year card instead".
Not sure whether the trend will continue, but it seems to be a relatively recent phenomenon, particularly in light of prices going to the moon on a lot of 1st year issues.
