I don't know Jay, there seem to be enough guys with money who really care about the numerical grade that you may be wrong.

Peter-Prices can't go up if there isn't demand. The question is how long this level of demand will persist. There was plenty of demand for tulips until February 1637. Then there wasn't.
And for those who don't know the story:

Jay we aren't talking about a market-wide phenomenon, we are talking about a tiny little elite corner where all it takes are two guys going after a single card (or one guy and the house ) to sustain very high prices. And I believe there are enough of a certain profile of collector that I can see the demand persisting.

I tend to agree with Peter... FOR NOW at least.
It takes one person who absolutely has to have it and at least one to chase until they give up.
