For scarce-to-rare cards, sellers with high eBay asking prices might be based on what they're asking elsewhere. I've seen Amazon sellers ask clearly too-high prices for sports cards, where they don't have the same competition (or educated audience) for listings.
One example: on Amazon, there are three E94 Close Candy cards listed and the "cheapest" is $1100+. Back on eBay, many E94 cards are $200 and under...including the same $1100 card. If someone goes looking for cards on Amazon, it looks like the most affordable when it's several times what an educated collector could find. But if you don't know that eBay is the deeper sports marketplace, you might think $1100 is an OK price.
