Sean and Jake make good points. But, I think my basic premise is still sound: as a general rule, buyers make out better in auctions than in BIN listings. In my opinion, the reason most sellers list BIN is to attempt to sell their items above auction (fair market) value.
I'm not being critical. Sellers are of course free to sell their cards at any price they wish, or not at all. My point is that eBay was a good bit more productive and fun for me before BINs, which comprise the vast majority of card listings.
