I noticed on ebay the other day there were 10,000 prewar BIN listings from 1900-1919 (approx) and 500 auctions. Anyone else remember the good old days when these figures were reversed?
I do the same thing Marty does, filter out all BINs (which gets rid of a lot of that crap and reprints) from 1900-1919 and check the auction cards. Then peruse the BINs hoping to find something other than the standard seller dumps which appear time and time again. There are definitely deals on ebay still but you have to really search for them now, which, I guess, is one reason they ARE deals, because a lot of collectors don't have the time and energy or lack the patience to do these searches.
