I've also been amazed at how long this has gone on, and how many cards are being submitted at $150 per.
The interesting part of this to me is that anything at $30/card and up pretty much means the end of grading commons, thus the end of graded set collecting. Graded set collecting is what built the registry, and there seems to be a broad consensus that PSA leads the industry, and gets a premium due to the registry. So if we're seeing the end of grading commons, and thus graded sets, what does that mean for the registry, and ultimately for PSA's leadership position? Maybe the registry will somehow continue to thrive with only $100+ cards? Who knows where this ends?
