Posted By: <b>steve</b><p>Without ebay, I would not be collecting wonderful vintage cards. They would otherwise be not available where I live, Portland, OR (other than big catalog auctions).<br /><br />ebay has made these golden oldies available to everyone, dealers and non-dealers alike. And on the sell end, now everyone gets the same opportunity to get the best price, where before, a dealer may offer you only 60% book on a generous day, usually less.<br /><br />Obviously, ebay has put a dent in the dealers' business. Evolution of our hobby has taken place - for the overall better - imo.<br /><br />steve
