Alpha prices stayed low right up until the rules came out that allowed for sleeves on cards. At that point players COULD use Alphas again, and Alpha card prices quickly increased past Beta card prices.

Best regards,

I used to be a hoarder. Now I am down to 9% of the Alpha Island Sanctuary print run! Woot! (Down from 14%+) Actually, I believe SCG bought my 5% Alpha Island Sanctuary auction...

As they have 56 of those babies listed, I'm pretty sure you are correct. Heck, by buying your copies and marking them up 200%, your remaining stock more than doubled in value!
