Buying cards on Amazon?

[Marchillo]

Does anyone ever do this? I only ask because I have a pile of credit card reward points to use. The value isn't quite there versus say just grabbing a Home Depot gift card but I can grab a card that I want in my collection that my wife would otherwise kill me if I just buy it.

So now to the question. Those who might buy there. Are there any reasonable priced cards? What is the best search method. As an example I searched 1956 Mantle and an SGC 2.5 came up for $440. I can afford it with my points but that same card on a buy it now on eBay is right around $350. And if I go the bidding route on eBay I could do better. Those same points I could grab $600 in Home Depot gift cards.

Since using points on Amazon is around 70% of the value of getting a gift card, I'd want to find cards at fairer prices. I just don't know the best way to search it on Amazon.

It's painful searching for specific cards one at a time.

Does anyone on here sell through Amazon?
