cmokingoh, and also, I'll bet that for these guys- paying 8K for high grade commons will NOT stop them from picking up low graded caramel HOFers if they chose to. It's not like the 8K is a big part of their collecting budget. It's a drop in the bucket. They can buy this card, and a couple hundred more 1K commons...and still pick up all those caramel cards HOFers...and in even higher grade...if they wanted to.
Investment and making money back if they sell is one thing - but they probably don't give two shakes about that.
