People pay more because they think they're worth more. I hear you, but if you push on that statement, isn't it just a truism? Or said another way, doesn't it just beg the question why people think they're worth more?
As to that question, I think Lorewalker is right that part of the answer lies in the set registry, and part in the superb marketing job PSA has done. Part also lies in the outstanding ancillary services like the pop report, and the ability to look up auction prices. Also, cert lookup is an invaluable tool for people who are trying to avoid altered cards.
