Wasn't this right before the market "value" on them tanked? All those collectors hoping for huge eBay auction payouts.

It was, yeah. The market crashed pretty much over night too. Really obvious in hindsight, but if you're making six figures from reselling the things you're probably too close to really notice the wider picture.
