Adam J. BaxterThanks for all the great info guys, I appreciate it. I don't track prices/auctions as fervently as others on the board, so I'm not always up to date on current prices. I remember T211's being $100, 150, 200 about two years ago and I'm not surprised by the price jump as they are both scarce and visually appealing. I've thought about picking up an example or two in the distant future to go along with my T210's, which is why I was curious.

I can't speak for the major auctions, but as far as EBay goes I think your right on the money. T211's don't even come up occasionally anymore and neither do their T226 boxing counterparts. It's seems to be the same thing with T209's, especially the second series. Popularity is playing a big role for both these issues as so many collectors are working on sets. Similar to what's been going on with T210's. They're all equally great sets, so climbing prices are probably long overdue.
