eBay still has available options of vintage cards (eg Goudey Ruths, T-series Cobb’s, 50s Mick/Mays, 48 Leaf Jackie, etc.) however generally prices haven’t adjusted to current market valuations-hence the museum status and more sellers than ever seem to be brands/businesses vs individual sellers. BST does seem to have far fewer scarce gems (eg Wagner and Jackson) or $1K+ offerings, which may have been snapped up and are being held long term by collectors. Major auctions or card shows seem to be one of the best places to make a deal, which for scarce and unique items obviously requires a paid premium. Everything has an exception of course.
