On the Amazon side, you have a lot of flippers on COMC.com (which is the subcontractor to Amazon for baseball cards) who will buy newly listed cards or cards that are discounted on COMC's site and then reprice them. I have had cards I listed at 2.50 get bought and be re-listed for $20, just so that guy can run a 75% off sale to try to get $5 for it. However, none of the sales show up on Amazon. So if you're buying a lot of cards from Amazon, you should really sign up for an account on comc.com instead. Then you wouldn't have to pay shipping on every order. You could just wait until you have all the cards you want for a set/order over weeks or months and then take delivery. Plus you get to take advantage of the sales (invisible on Amazon) and even get to make offers on cards.
