I had probably sorted through 100 or so 3200/5000 ct boxes, opened boxes, factory and hand collated sets over a span of 5 years before I saw a copy.

Then I started focusing on specific packaging types. 100s if boxes later, still not a copy.

Finally in a random box at Goodwill, found my first copy. From there, I started again on unopened. Found one copy. Since then I will occasionally buy the type they come from but have yet to pull another. Only found additional copies in misc lots/commons boxes.

I think the opposite is true. The card is a tough variation, say on a scale of 1-10 for 1991 Topps but for the last 5-7 years, they are very well known as decent sellers and they get tossed on eBay frequently. Eventually they will dry up again.
