I agree these high prices are good for the hobby, as silly as they are. There are lots of silly and outrageous things about this hobby, and in instances such as this bonkers Jeter auction, we get the opportunity to have a good laugh now and then. Double benefit as far as I'm concerned.
I may be wrong, but I don't think the Gem Mint card populations grow much from year to year, generally speaking. I'd expect that eventually -- say, 10 or 15 years from now -- there might be a few more that have been graded PSA Gem Mint. Or, maybe a couple dozen more that have been graded BGS 9.5 (and perhaps a couple BGS 10's by then, as well).
