When will MM17 boxes bottom out?

I have been keeping an eye on Amazon listings for MM17 booster boxes. They started around $225, and are now under $200 . Will it hit the same low Eternal Masters ($110) did in late January?
Outside of another printing/release of MM17, I feel like it has already reached its floor. Apart from some minor shifts, I only expect it go up from here.

They may drop off some due to complaints that the colors on the cards are somewhat washed out. Some people don't want their $80 goyfs/lilys to look inferior to other versions. Still, a set with fetchlands in it won't decrease by much if at all over its lifetime.

Eternal masters had a second printing, and had less likely hood to open what the box was selling for. MM17 has more cards that are worth more than a pack, many of which are played as multiples of or in more than 1 format.
Actually, before the spoilers started you could get boxes at below $200 (I seen some at $175). I don't think they will go down much if at all. As the return on opening the cases and selling singles is close to that already. Even if they do a second printing, demand for MM17 is still higher than EM. As most legacy players would rather buy singles, and commander players only need 1 copy to play.
