Doesn't matter. Too many people use VCP as the Bible. I got a killer deal from Mile High. The $200 BIN was the right price. The $140 auction was the steal.

My guess is that if you switch to BINs, you will be back complaining that your cards aren't selling.

Peter, does my screen shot not prove ANYTHING to you? Does it not prove BINs are the way to go?

It's one example in a world of cards, so no. I have listed many cards at what I thought were reasonable BINs and nobody even looked at them. Ebay completed auctions also don't always tell you the real, best offer price.

As a general rule, when someone I am talking to about buying a card say VCP, I move on.

Yeah, I agree it should have probably gotten at least $175. But the color on yours is a bit faded and the centering is off as well. And, except for Greenberg, Diamond Stars have not been a good investment the last few years.

Your issue is that too many people know what a particular card is worth?
