Vintage Ralph Lauren

I've noticed that these items are fetching big prices recently at auction. For example this little jersey I picked up recently for a couple bucks sold for $147 between 7 bidders http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0201659604" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I bought initially because I have been noticing this trend, but I didn't expect it to be so desirable (I knew I had something when within the first 24 hours I had three offers). Some other items of note:

I'm trying to figure out what all these items have in common that makes them so desirable for collectors. These items are not particularly old, and I'd guess they date mostly from early 90's or late 80's. They are generally made in USA (but not exclusively). They are associated with gentry sport style (Polo, Tennis, Ski, Rugby).
Anyone know of any guides out there to vintage Ralph Lauren?
