While these arent rare, supply is fairly limited in eye appealing grades 5 and above and there is enough money out there to push prices up. I think the prices have been too low for too long on a lot of the marquee HOF from the t206 set.

Apples to oranges. The high end rookie card market is, IMO, driven by a lot of speculators and flippers.
