Here's my thoughts: collectors are hunters, first and foremost. They want to be the one to make the find.
A recently framed item means that someone else made that find. That someone else saw the value in the item. That they probably got it for a song, and now they're going to sell it to you at *RETAIL*!!!
For many collectors, seeing something in a frame means we failed at finding it in the wild first.
