T206 Back Rankings

[Blitzu]

I think the problem with using eBay as a source is skewed by the lack of knowledge. I feel like barfing every time I see the word "rare" listed on a sweet caporal, Tolstoi, or even cycle 350 back. It seems like anything non pied/SC is thought of as rare and the less knowledgeable consumers are (no pun) buying into it.

Rare needs to be left for Uzits, blanks, drums, etc. "Tough" is the appropriate designation for anything under red Hindu IMHO. If the markets reflected that I think the prices would be different. There also goes into consideration those that try to buy the whole market on one back, and the lack of those cards readily available at that given time will raise prices well beyond what they should be just because of a temporary shortage.
