Stuff is definitely moving, although it's probably concentrated towards the bottom end of the scale.
Personally, my sales have been in the $1k to $4k range, per item.
Most of my stuff had been sitting on eBay for a long time, so I figured it was worth a shot to see if the new platform might make a difference. Would they have sold if I had left them on eBay? I guess we'll never know. But many of them were up on eBay for a long time, so it seems unlikely that they were going to move if I kept them there.
I do think that when it comes to buying a big card in the $10k+ range, people probably feel better picking it up from a counterparty that they trust, rather than some rando like me on ebay. And you might even argue that the cutoff is closer to $5k or maybe even $1k.

Oh, i think it has great utility. I just dont think it’s a place to try to ripoff well-healed collectors. But whatever….
