Are all the good Mantles, Mays, Aarons, etc being hoarded, or are they just being auctioned off through PWCC?

carry on
1) Some of Dean's cards are listed cheaper through COMC. And there are some cases where he has PSA 7s priced less than his raw NM cards... ? I actually bought a Rollie Fingers autographed rookie card from him on COMC.

2) Don't get people started on scanners. ;-) Sometimes the settings can overexpose the card, washing out wrinkles and creases or spots. I use a 16 MPIX camera myself.

3) PWCC and Probstein get so many because their prices realized are strong, and they have deals with eBay to keep less of the take than eBay's normal 10%+3% paypal, and pass those savings to the consignors.
