JasonRegistries certainly lend a hand in us seeing crazy prices.
Being a collector of T201's. I've seen some crazy prices on cards in PSA 6, 7 and 8 of late.
Just a couple of weeks ago a couple of guys went hard after a bunch of SGC 80's. It made for some weird prices. I saw a Cicotte SGC 80 go for 3x's SMR and actually go higher then an SGC 84 Payne and Walsh. (Both of which were being sold by the same seller)
I saw an SGC 80 Daubert/Rucker got for 2.75x SMR and actually out price a Brown/Hofman of the same grade for 80 bucks.
All of this of course was just intense bidding between two individuals.
Neither one of them wanted the Laporte/Stephens SGC 80 which I picked up for 151.00 which is slightly above SGC, and the the SGC 80 Thomas/Coombs went for 137.00 because nobody including myself needed that one.
