I get it. You can list a card for anything you want. But I keep seeing cards on eBay that are conservatively 250% - 500% higher than they should really be.
Interesting. I was under the impression A/H's were more expensive, albeit, they usually had a better product, but with their 15%-20+% tacked on, I thought E-Bay was more reasonable?

I have seen some crazy E-Bay prices just snooping, and usually a quick trip to VCP confirms that, but for the most part, usually the prices are not that far apart. (post war anyways)
