Not really concerned with flipping as most of my oddball stuff is priced high as you can see.

I buy alot of stuff for myself as I did the recent REA lots. So I stick them in my ebay store which costs me nothing and if someone wants them more than I do then so be it.

My ultimate goal is to get most of my collection up in my store eventually.

Of course I haven't even got my show stock half up yet so I may die first of old age.

Any way, my ebay store is basically a place to showcase some of my neat stuff which I have done with some of my rare T206s that I really do not want to part with.

Remember, I didn't want to part with the Aplpha's but they are gone.

Happy Collecting everyone!

Dan Mckee - Darby-s on ebay

You're just an ole fuddy duddy....we know you. I too have listed stuff for sale with high prices because I didn't want to sell. Two years ago at the National I did it with one full case. One guy argued with me for at least 30 minutes about trading for a card I had 10k on. I told him cash only and I was firm on it. He never understood even AFTER I told him I didn't really want to sell. He kept on saying, "but you have a price on it" and I kept on saying, "because everyone keeps asking but I don't want to sell".......He couldn't grasp the concept.

Exactly Leon! and if anyone wants to hit the BIN please feel free as I will have the items in hand quicker than you can imagine! I pride myself on fast shipping!

We all handle this hobby differently. I don't know what portion of Dan's collection is represented on ebay, but I used to put almost all of mine up for sale. I figured everything has a price if someone wants to try to pry it out of my hands, but in the meantime I can enjoy it.

I kind of like Dan's business model.
