Can someone explain to me why Ten Thousand Dragon costs so much money?

MTG... doesn’t really. Outside of like alt art reprints and 1996 World Champion, which was a special case. The fetch lands and equivalent don’t count, considering they’re directly tailored to get whales to purchase them, based on their secondary market value,.
The card being expensive is entirely based on what they can get out of people. That’s a problem of how the entire secondary market runs, but they can do it, scummy as it is... And usage has never been a factor for collector’s items. Lots of cards aimed at collectors in YGO fucking suck. Sure, this isn’t an anime card, but it’s still a commemorative collector’s item.
The price is bull, but play value is not directly proportional to price. Not like you can play rare baseball cards.
