that's a big disparity for the same type of card....I don't see that with HOF players but low pop commons..
looks like in the 5000 auction though only 2 bidders really prepared to go over 3000.....whats strange is the bidder that lost the 5000 auction didn't bid on the auction a week later......

Everyone chooses to collect in their own way. I would not spend $3,000 on anything that was not a Mantle card, as I am generally not interested in common cards. But, people buy what they like and I try not to judge. You consider a population of 25 low pop though? I would not think that would be sufficiently rare as to create a premium, but I don't know the set building/registry driven market as well.
