I just bought a few dozen common cards for my 1969 set off Sportlots and paid between $0.75 and $1.25 for most of them. A look at COMC and I would have paid 2-3x for cards in worse condition and up to 4-5x for cards in equivalent condition. Maybe its worth it you to pay that premium to look at a picture, but I have plenty of other places to spend my money and am not going to throw it around frivolously.
