I have made around 50 individual buys on ebay in the last 2 weeks on mainstream, commodity type Topps cards. I am completely agnostic in who I deal with. I make sure, as much as possible, to not get burned but the seller makes no difference, quite honestly. As far as more people watching big sellers auctions....yeah, I think lots of buddies still bidding on other buddies cards and running them up. I don't buy that the biggest sellers get a lot more money (legitimately). They might get some more as they do get more eyes....just not a ton.
