I have a very nice '51 Topps team card because of this and several t205s. I stopped doing this when a few people who knew my ebay id would watch what I was bidding just to see if they could score a bargain. When ebay went to mostly private bidder names, I started doing it more again. Most recently, I won a Globe card for the initial 9.99 price. About a third of what I thought it might go for.
