Default best deal you've made

You used to be able to buy lots of 6 or 7 cards to get the one or two you needed, and sell the other 4 or 5 on ebay to recapture your investment and get your two cards free, so to speak. I did this on several lots and got some tough E90-1s, T207s and T205s. You just can't do it that much anymore, if at all. Minimum bids are way up and too many bidders are driving prices way up. It was fin while it lasted. Someone (from this board I think) told me a story of someone who collected a whole T206 set (minus the Big 6) by doing this. I don't know if it is apocryphal or not, but it sure sounded good!
