I too love Scarlet and Violet base. The main reason is because it’s a historic set. Whether people like the border change or not it’s the first set of the new change. So it has history attached to it which will set it apart in the future for future box breakers.
You are 100% correct on its future significance. I Just completed the set in regards to SIR, IR and Hyper rare. cost only $169 to grab the last 21 cards my son was missing from his binder, one was the Marriam he was missing. Very nice set.
When price consolidates for a certain pokemon product that means buyers/sellers are in agreement with price. Is it then, when pokemon is no longer printing a specific product, that the price climbs higher (demand > supply)
Definitely supply Vs demand kicks in when product sells out at the retail level but some products are more desirable so the climb could be faster for certain products. Fusion strike sold out and really shot up but Astral Radiance is moving up really slow after selling out. The buyers and sellers definitely agree when a box is moving fast but when it slows them buyers are fighting the price
