The short, expensive tail of the set.
You can own 225 of the 235 priced cards in Swsh01: Sword & Shield Base Set for about $199. The median card is $0.22. The remaining $347 sits in just 10 chase cards, and one of them (Snorlax VMAX (Secret), $104) is 19% of the entire set on its own. A full set is not one long climb. It is a cheap, fast 36% and then a very short, very expensive tail.
