I didn't collect basketball back then, but those PMG cards fall into the same category. 91 topps desert shield seem to be hot as well.
I think as guys around my age who collected as kids in the 90s and remember these cards get back into the hobby demand will only increase.

I get the appeal of the refractors, which I think were the first cards to use that technology, but from that point of view rather than scarcity. The certified mirrors just seem a copycat to me.
