Waz,

P42s are difficult, but not quite as much as it may seem. Many sellers of P42s don't know what they have and don't advertise the card as a P42. Just three days ago a seller put a Leifeild (Batting) P42 on eBay in G-VG at a BIN of $24.99 (check out eBay Completed Listings). This happens several times a year. On the other hand, Brown Hindus and other scarce backs are almost always advertised as such. This leads to a perception that P42s are a little more difficult than they are in fact.

Also, setting difficulty aside, many collectors would rather own a Brown Hindu than a P42 because they perceive brand differences as more important than factory differences. Plus, many people just love the look of the Brown Hindu back.

Don't get me wrong. P42s are difficult and deserving of a considerable premium. But many people would pay more for a Brown Hindu for reasons stated.
