What happens when that handful has a piece by the artist? What then? There may still be others who want a piece, but who are unable or unwilling to pay the ask. What happens to the market then? Does the artist lower his/her ask?

Again, the market will decide. This is all a function of supply and demand. If demand no longer supports a certain price point, then either the artist lowers it, or he just decides not to do them anymore. It's happened before in our hobby.
