Yes, I wonder about the market for the ultra-expensive cards, whether we are talking about Kobe, or Cobb or Ruth. The value of any card is solely what somebody else is willing to pay to buy it from you - you can't use it like say a beach house or a private helicopter - and with so thin of a market, it only takes a few people to decide to take their millions and go buy something else. And then you are left with a bunch of people with $2 million invested in a card and nobody to sell to.
