Mostly supply and demand.
The show "The Walking Dead" features the main character primarily using a nickel plated Cold Python. No doubt that fans of the show have sought out this gun and driven the price up. Don't underestimate fads. If I had a Python I'd sell it at top value right now. Can't see it going higher. From my understanding it's nothing particularly special from a mechanical standpoint to warrant costing 5-8 times that of other high quality .357 magnums.
