Why has Cobb gone to the moon

Rare Cobb cards certainly still set records, but oftentimes they don't anymore.

The rare stuff still sells high and sets records but the easier to get PCs are lower than what they had been at. Of course, if I'm bidding on it, a new record will be set every single time, guaranteed.

It's really about supply in demand here, Jeff. And I am one to argue that supply has little to do with value (most times)...but in this case of the Cobby PC's, I do believe that supply caught up with demand. Too many of the PC's you mentioned have hit the market in too short of a time.

And yes, it seems when we are bidding ourselves, things go really high.
