At least the last few times I bought from Dean, he ran to VCP to see what he had then claimed "out of stock" and relisted with an even HIGHER price!

I once ran an auction for a rare card on ebay. There was only one other card listed on ebay as a BIN graded the same, but I believed it was in slightly better condition than mine so I based my expectations on that.
In the end mine sold for more than $100 more than the BIN card. That BIN card was from Dean's. Mine sold over a year ago, and Dean's is still listed for sale with the same BIN. It would have been a good deal for the underbidder to buy. I think there are other little deals like this that CAN be had by Dean's Cards, the problem is that there are so many high priced common cards that people just assume ALL the cards are overpriced.

I can't recommend Batters Box enough! The card pictured in each auction is exactly what you will get; they are responsive to eBay inquiries (i.e. sending a scan of back of card, more explanation, etc.), and the shipping is fast. They used to offer free shipping, but now offer free shipping for orders over $6 (I think). I've ordered from them several times and have never been disappointed.
Of course, Texas residents pay sales tax, but that is a small price to pay for quality service from a quality dealer. |

I don't buy from Dean's ... too expensive. I've bought from Batter's Box before and have nothing bad to say about them. 100% professionals, quality for sure.
Also, I've bought a few lots here and there from KrukCards just to get started into vintage. Seems they're fast shippers and have good communication. |

One positive about Deans is that I've bought five vintage autographed cards from him and all passed PSA authentication. For auto set collectors, I would be comfortable purchasing a bunch more and the prices of their auto cards on COMC was pretty reasonable imo.

Bought many raw cards from batters box while trying to complete several 1960's sets. Great prices. Accurate grading. Never an issue. Pretty much my go to seller. Always happy when they have what I need. Or needed...as I don't do much with cards any more.

Well, Deans Cards just announced that for Hurricane Irma and Harvey survivors, they are only going to raise their prices on cards by 3,000%, instead of their usual 10,000%.
