First, go and see the prices for PSA 1-5 of the 89 UD Griffey. And the .5 pt increments are highly sought after.
Griffey is nostalgia. His cards were expensive when I was a kid. And now that I have a little pocket change, I can try to grab some of the cards I always wanted when I was younger.
As for modern stars, I know that Jeter prices soared for a bit with Covid but have settled again. And Bonds was a recluse in the hobby for a long time. He hardly signed any pack inserts. So his absence likely helped fuel his strong prices. But I don't think he'll ever be as popular as Griffey.
