It boggles my mind as well, same thing with the guy who dropped $16,000 on an Andrew Luck Chrome Superfractor last year. He will NEVER see that $16,000 again as it will only go down from here. It's the silliest trend in modern card collecting. It doesn't matter how "rare" these new shiny cards are or how great that particular player plays, they will never retain their value over time like vintage cards.
