The market is currently overrun with guys wanting to be better than the next. That rarely ends well unless you are the seller. Notice how people applaud the ebay authenticity guarantee system when it stops buyers from returns. Those are the types of sellers you will be buying from at your price point. They don’t want it back even if you are unhappy.

Thank you. This is helpful and getting me thinking of the other side of the coin. Based on your view that you presented, if you were going to buy/invest in cards as a blurred hobby/potential investment, where would you put your money?
