I think it depends on the set to be honest. Some vintage cards have certainly taken off price wise. I also think the original post has to deal more with buying than selling. A lot of times it's easier to swing deals on lots of cards rather than buying a set card by card. There will always be exceptions to this rule.
For an example look at the most recent REA auction.

It contains a Groat and Bartirome. Now if you were to buy unsigned copies of those cards individually, you're looking at the 600-800 range for the Bartirome by itself and the 200-300 range for the Groat by itself. Both of these cards are paired in this lot along with two others and they are all signed. Sometimes it makes sense to buy cards in groups.
