Russ,

Actually, you probably got the lots from former card stores, or something similar to that. When storeowners decided that they could make more money from E-Bay than in their own stores, some of them decided they would go on E-bay full time.

However, on E-bay they might be able to be more profitable, they couldn't sell as many cards as they did before because it doesn't make any sense to spend the time to auction off a .05 card.

So what you have been buying possibly is the excess inventory from these former storeowners.
