There are different segments of the trading card market. Just because he prices mass produced commons at ridiculous prices, doesn't mean he doesn't sometimes price much more limited pre-war cards at prices that are more in line with pricing expectations and sometimes qualify as buys.

Things are not all or nothing. I've probably bought less than 10 cards from Deans even when they were on COMC, but I probably turned a profit on 7 of them. As mentioned earlier, because of their scans, you can identify some limited recurring print defects in their inventory and get them for $2 when they would sell properly marketed for $100.

If you want bulk commons, sportlots is better suited for set builders, along with card show boxes and COMC.

Y'all stop being so daft.
