EBay "saved search" and waiting has worked for me, but not much the past few years...
Like someone else pointed out...since we've moved past the $6/$8 graded specials era, a lot have been snapped up. I know the ones I have are in a strongly held collection and will not make it back to market any time soon. This has everything to do with it's a card a want and nothing to do with what price I could get for it.
I have many saved searches from mid-1980s through the 2000s that are still unfulfilled because they rarely/never come up for auction or current sellers are pricing them through the roof.
Some cards don't have graded examples, or only 1 or 2 out in the wild. It helps to search the PSA/SGC registry to see if one has even been graded.
