+1 on what Phil said above. They know. I deal with a certain antique store regularly. People consign. 2 sellers usually have baseball cards. Customers know this, and they go quickly, that is, the good stuff. 1 seller puts mint pricing on low grade cards. Amazingly, they sell. 1 seller puts realistic prices on cards. They sell even faster.
The things I have come to know about CJs, because I have some, is this. They are flimsy, like paper almost. They are fragile; they will come apart if you aren't very careful. They are stained and yellowed, because they were in boxes with caramelized popcorn. Finally, there is no white, per se. They were not printed with any white ink. And they were printed with very specific fonts.
