With the 52 Topps cards, high # cards actually mean something as they are the rarest of that set.

Many, because of their late introduction to market were thrown in the sea due to lack of sales so high number cards are harder to come by and therefore, usually, worth more money.

I personally think, when you read that, with many listings other than the 52 Topps series, some are just using that as an excuse to try and drum up business as I don't think many, or any sets prior or after that Topps series were thrown into the sea?
