Sure, but this card (and most of the cards displayed at GBSCC) have also been listed in Facebook groups, Instagram, etc. in the interim. The price hike didn't happen organically due to the passage of time and an increase in demand.
To be clear, I don't have any problem with flipping or arbitrage. My only point is that buyers and sellers have access to the same information, and it's going to be harder for sellers to get Y when the buyer saw it for X just yesterday.
That's not an issue for the super-high-end investors with ultra-rare cards that rarely change hands, but it is a factor when selling cards that pop up frequently.
