I have a weakness for HOF autos and game used and purchase many of them on eBay. It is littered with choices of manufactered rare cards. Like has been stated by others is the volume of 'rare' cards that dont stand apart. If I want a Juan Marical auto or a Derek Jeter jersey swatch I can find 200 choices of each in less than a minute. I target the attribute I want and a price range I want to be in . The low serial numbers have never influenced what I buy. The eye appeal and individual asthetics of the card/auto/relicare what drives me when I pick what I will bid on.
