probably not...my experience is that prices are inflated anywhere from 20%-100% of current "book" values. I have to laugh at some of the dealers who have buy it now and best offers for some of their cards that are priced way to high. I offered a guy a fair price for a T206 Shaugnessey that looked like my dog had chewed it up and spit it out....he emailed me back a rather belligerent response telling me that the card was not in poor to fair condition, that it was in excellent condition for a card that old.
I rarely find what I would call good deals on Ebay anymore. Most of the time I am just buying cards I need or have wanted at prices that are probably too high. A lot of the sellers are just plain jokes, and try to pass themselves off as being knowledgeable about vintage material. Some are good though, and I continually buy from this select group of 4-5 sellers.
