As has been stated, Griffey is still extremely popular (one of the few with no PED black marks) and very collectible, so think of the thousands and thousands of Griffey fans vs. 94 hits on eBay. It's easy to see why his RC still commands $20.
To me, $20 is nothing to pay for one of the hobby's classic modern cards, even if there are a ton of them out there.

Good point.
Incidentally, $20 isn't too much for me.
