I sort of buried the lede. ALL of this stuff came from my many visits to the same dealer. The rest of the (pretty huge) show was museum priced...so when I found his table, I latched on. His sticker prices were all based on recent eBay sold prices. As I checked my phone for sales data on any card I was interested in, it was obvious that that's exactly how he established his pricing. Then I bundled stuff together and got him to go lower. Anything I wanted that I didn't buy on my first look was gone by the time I returned a little while later. He was doing a brisk business.

What a wonderful card collecting world it would be if others followed suit.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
