The other problem with the individual vs. lot issue is that many people do not even bother for the reason you mentioned because they figure it will go as a group in the end. It was an interesting novelty at first, but I think most bidders don't like it. I know that I did not put serious bids in on a lot of cards I wanted because I thought it would be a distraction that kept me away from winning lots I had a real chance to win. Had I thought the CJ lot would have been broken, I would have bid on several other cards. For example, the PSA 7 Joe Jackson went for a steal! I am sure if that card were auctioned by itself it would have gone for nearly twice that amount!
