My bet is that SMR prices are going up because they were inexplicably low to begin with. They are going up because they are actually closing the gap to true market value. For T206, the SMR prices on key HOF's finally appear to be within a standard deviation of VCP prices. However, compare prices of SMR Cracker Jacks, for example, to actual realized prices and it's easy to dismiss SMR as a good barometer of card values.

As an aside, it blows my mind that SMR values would ever lag true values as PSA has a vested interest in higher market prices at each grading level.
