Default population reports on prewar commons vs. pricing

Posted By: scott

i apologize if i'm revisiting a common subject.looking on ebay for 1915 crackerjack hof's i noticed a number of high grade commons ranging from $600 -800.assuming the large price tag is based on population reports,this got me thinking...what would happen if a large collection of high grade cards were found ,graded,and suddenly the population doubled or tripled?or maybe the population increased due to more "slabbing activity".part of this question was based on reading a previous post about the high quality raw collections out there.has there ever been an instance where a find has increased population such a degree to decrease a commons value?
i'm not interested for my own collecting purposes in buying high end commons ...just interested in opinions.
i wonder how much these cards would go for unslabbed?
thanks,
scott ps.my question applies to all pre-war not just
CJ's.
