i think what i said still applies. the book is supposed to be a guide based on past sales and give you an idea of what something will cost. sometimes its wrong. for example, in t206 land prices are way off lots of times.

people may or may not use the book to get an idea of what they should be paying. eventually they realize that they will never own the card at book value. it just takes some time for that realization to set in.

i would say the book is a resisting factor. its a factor but ultimately people wake up and realize the book may be wrong. it either takes them more time to buy the card because of that, or they buy a more affordable card in lower condition.
