There are always winners and losers at the same auction.
The same EXACT 1916-20 W-UNC Rogers Hornsby card graded PSA 6 sold in August of 2012 for $1,025 and then sold last night for $3,327. Same AH, same card, almost the same description.  Not sure what happened, but I'm not complaining...since it was my card!  I concur with others that it is likely the perception that Green-Joyce cards are more plentiful than previously thought. They're still pretty darn rare, so I'd say the price drop is staggering!

Congratulations on that sale! I was looking over the auction results (I didn't take anything home), thinking that the prices for some issues were a bit insane. When I saw the Hornsby, my first thought was "that's the ugliest card that I've ever seen!" and then I saw the price... Or how about the T206 Johnny Evers With Bat - Sovereign 150 SGC 30 that went for $4600+ w/ BP??

The population of these cards have increased dramatically -- look at how the prices for lower graded E98s have dropped since the Black Swamp find. The pricing history which has been traditionally troubling is when the same cards sell for $2500 one week and then $320 the following week which, of course, has happened.

The problem with collecting rare and scarce cards is when you acquire them they are one population known and many times when you sell them there is a larger population known. I live it every day.
But it does make the stuff that is still rare, even more desirable (if that is what you collect).
