What are some sneaky things SOME card-dealers do...One that I've noticed is to overestimate the true count of a bulk lot of cards one might be buying, "Well your getting 500 of these '67s for a .25/piece, can't beat that!" Actually you can if you consider the "500" cards is really more like 350-400...

When I was buying bulk lots from the late 50's, my biggest problem with dealers was the type of lots that They referred to as "average VG condition with a few better and a few worse". What you actually got was few VG cards with a whole hell of a lot worse and none better.

Duplication. I once bought a lot of approx 2000 mid-80's Topps commons expecting "some duplication" per the auction description, but figuring it'd give me a good jump on a couple sets. What I ended up with was about 20 different cards, and between 20 and 400 of each card.
