How in the world can Cabrera, McCutchen, and Verlander Rookie and 2nd year cards go down. Mark Teixeira, Steven White, Mike Costanzo, Jason Bay, and Joey Votto cards didn't go down. I have nothing against the last 5 players. I am just using them as an example. A lot of you have explained before your thoughts as to why and I thank you all for imput. No one will ever convince me that there isn't some type of manipulation going on. I do not have dozens and dozens of any of these players, so it isn't that this will hurt my retirement. By the way, I have no Cabrera, 4 McCutchen, and 2 Verlander. Does anyone else feel this way? I did not post this to start any type of agruement, but probably will. I really don't understand as to someone's thought process to do this.

Simple. Its because all the "investors" and ebay flippers decided to take their money out of Cabrera, McCutchen, Verlander etc. Without investors and flippers propping up the market the card values for these guys fell.

As a collector, it makes you think twice about what you pay for cards, doesn't it?
