They will stop when people stop buying it.
How many times have I gone on sites and see people selling anything and I say, who is going to pay that price, and sure enough!
There are two people in this hobby, the collector/hobbiest and the showoff.
Tanks are becoming more and more of a status symbol and for you to have "exotic, super rare, limited to the utmost extreme, one of a kind, world renowned, show piece, etc, etc" in your tank, is something you can point out as everyone huddles around it sipping wine and eating the strawberries in your house. So as long as there is a market that wants to "showoff" the Super rare, the laws of supply and demand will rule!
