I wouldn't say rare cds always have to have expensive price tags. There are albums I've never seen on YJA so you can't really know which price they would go for.
Fishing Taro's Holiday Off Time Game Music for example was on YJA (at least) twice in recent times, once in 2006 and in march 2011. It went for 4000 Yen.
On the other hand there are CDs like the Goemon ones or Tactics Ogre where all sellers seem to have agreed on raising the market price.
Whenever somebody does set the starting bid to 1 Yen or 100 Yen, it rarely goes beyond 10,000 yen.
I think if you wait long enough you can get any album for below that sum.

The only CDs I'd consider both rare and expensive are Nintendo game music CDs, because Nintendo makes no effort to make these available to a large audience and there's always some idiot willing to pay 20,000 yen and more.
