I didn’t see any prewar cards in the examples nor much mention of Dean selling them.
A few prewar dealers have high list prices for rare cards. If I wanted them cheaper I don’t know that I could find them.
But...the Topps cards are hawked by *hundreds* of sellers in all different grades, conditions and prices. I’m not certain that he (Dean) needs to be called out for higher asking prices since everyone seems to just want to pay the lowest price.
That means * hundreds * of guys have prices higher than the lowest one.
Do we have to call them out as too high as well?
Skipping over a certain seller doesn’t seem difficult, and despite all the threads complaining about them, they don’t appear willing to lower the prices. I suppose you can keep trying though, since it’s your prerogative, much like it is his (or theirs)
