As a buyer, I have found they have a nice selection but the prices are the highest of any seller I know. Many items priced at 200% of the going rate. They seem professional, just high prices.

When searching on eBay, I now exclude them from the results, given that their ebay prices are 10% higher still than their website.

Here's an example: I can't find N300 Mayo's anywhere, only at Dean's. In desperation I purchase one for $1,100 that previously sold at auction for $501.00 + shipping and tax. Few weeks later same grade equivalent is a BIN on eBay for $799. I paid higher than a recent auction price and higher than the next BIN price because the item was hard to find. No deals can be had at Dean's... something to keep in mind.
