Ron Santo rookies going through the roof

I'm hoping someone can list out the finishing price of the last 5 or 6 1961 Ron Santo Rookies that have sold on Ebay. One ended December 22nd. for over $800, and if memory serves, the prior 2 sold for over $900. Any explanations for this? I understand SMR can be way off, but it's been surprising with this economy. I already have my 9, and always watch the high end Santo's. Didn't pay anywhere near what they are going for now.

    Here you go. "cbailey758" is the buying ID for MLB's Dimitri Young, who makes millions of dollars playing pro baseball and does not get outbid. He set the pace for a while, but it looks like things might be slowly returning to reality.

    That has been a tough card to win on eBay for sure. I have been looking for a 9 for my Future HOF Rookie Players Set --- finally got one through a private sale with a fellow forum member ($900).

    Thanks Digicat. I thought they were going for some serious coin. Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays to all.

    Why did he need four Santo rookies? One for each of his kids?

    Dmitri likes 10s of the rookie cards of HOFers and stars...when he can't get a 10, he tends to hoard 9s.
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    He used to attack the endgame buffet with equal vigor when playing for the Tigers. His collection was featured in a recent SMR I believe (within the past year)
