No trick really to it...I usually like to go to shows and buy lots of low grade raw commons at 10 each. I am flexilble enough to go to about 12, but generally they have to be something more special before I go more than that. Keep in mind I have been regularly buying T206s for more than two decades and have had several finds, so I feel pretty comfortable with them and I am more comfortable in the friendly creases of a low grade card than a pristine HOFer where you have to worry about all manner of trimming, recoloring and rebacking.
Ebay has been a little competitive lately, but prices normally moderate in summer. I guess outdoor activity tamps down the competition. Keep an eye on the bst here. I have found some of my better buys here.
