I heard that when Dean and Levi and Yep were little guys they had some great cards that had gone up in value so they sold them. But then the value of such cards went up a lot more and they were sorry they had sold them so cheap. So when they got older and got some more neat cards they decided to put them up for sale at really high prices and not sell them unless they got that price, no matter how much people complained about it or made fun of the fact they would not sell them cards at a lower price.

But I have not checked the factual accuracy of this with snopes

Default Topps

While that would sure make sense if the cards we were talking about were rare, but several examples and the resulting complaints were like 1968 Topps.
(Hundreds of dealers, only one priced the lowest...thereby hundreds of dealers charging too much)
