Will offer my two cents, recognizing I have no rarities and that my "Novembet Pickup" of a 1971 Steve Garvey in VG may by itself disqualify me from this forum...
Rarity is all about supply...that's it. But price, buzz, interest, etc., are all about demand. For something like the T206 Wagner, perhaps a million people would love to have that card for every one that exists. That's a great ratio. But for some of the rarest cards, most people and even collectors don't even know about them, let alone think they want one. Maybe there's only a ten to one ratio of interest to supply.
