Dean's Cards Discounts
Probably like many of you, I usually scroll past Dean's cards on ebay and I assume it's a pretty reliable rule of thumb that their prices are 2x fair retail. I thought they never negotiated or discounted. I just got a notification that they discounted a card on ebay. Is this normal, or a sign that the cardpocalypse is upon us?

When apologists for notorious on-line price extortionists claim they have fine business models, and you can’t help but laugh and wonder, “If that’s the case, why don’t they buy up all of the same cards that others list on eBay for 1/4 of their price and sell them for a huge profit??”

Now whether this model is a good one is beyond me, I don’t have access to Deans financials but we can see his sold history and he moves cards in decent volumes. So I assume it is working, and I can respect someone that likes to take price premium. |

They actually do. Dean has bought probably 50 ish cards from me over the years via Buy It Nows. It doesn't make a ton of sense but it must work for him or he wouldn't still be doing it after all these years.

He lowered the price on a card I had seen too. Down from over $1200 to $1030. First time I had seen that also, but still more expensive than on his website…which is still overpriced.

Curious - how can you tell it was soaked?

I usually cringe when I'm searching ebay for a certain series of cards and start seeing Dean's Cards because I know I'm probably going to have to suffer through a ton of card listings.
I'm curious, has anybody found a bargain with Dean's?

Yes, this card was cleaned. Is it not obvious?
