It is an odd one right now: the hobby is booming on the whole with insane show attendance and tremendous activity (look at the sheer number of auctions), but everyone wants to steal every deal. One newb asked me for high end cards at discount prices. Still laughing about that one.
Given the prices, I suspect that many of the mundane but expensive cards that are selling at disappointing levels are from long-time collectors who are cashing out by choice or by circumstance (death or incapacity).
