I get certain use cases for him, like us variation geeks using his great scans and large stock to 'overpay' for tough defects that are hard to find, but I really do not understand how his business works at the scale it does in fact work at. It's not like he stocks tons of cards that are so tough you can't go find them on eBay for 50% of his asking price or less. I don't get why it is that evidently many people will pay him much more for a card than they will others. His site isn't any easier than buying on eBay, there's no carrot that I can see here. There are tons of sellers who provide fine customer service selling the same items for far less, and yet his business manages to survive and thrive.
