If somone wants to bid in a private auction by a dishonest
seller (see Duke Snider) that is his or her choice. Wouldn't
be mine.

If a seller uses less than honest pricing and grade descriptions
to try and artificially inflate the price of cards (for example
calling a PSA 8 O/C a high grade 8 and close to a 9, then using
the SMR for Mint 9 as the book value), what do you think he's using
private auctions for?
