For something like Jordan it only worse because of supply. Easier to manipulate 9s and 10s though

Agreed! I consigned my 51 bowman mantle a year or two ago only to find like six of them in the auction! To say I was pissed off was an understatement! In most of the big big auctions you will see multiple examples of red tea 206 Cobbs, 1952 Topps mantles, even cards like e95 Ty Cobbs it’s not uncommon to see two or three examples in a big auction.
These experiences made me think twice about the big auction houses sometimes smaller auctions are better where your item will be a headliner versus just one of many!
