Scott, Steve,
On a scale of 1-10, 1 being very inefficient and 10 being perfectly efficient, how would you rate the card market in general?
Economic theory would suggest there are more profits to be made in an inefficient market, than in a perfect one.
I happen to think, based on my observations, that the pre-war sports card market is about a 4 or less on this scale. The price fluctuations are pretty wide. Enough to realize a healthy profit if you're going from wholesale (auctions, lots, private collections) to retail.
The only downside is the time you have to wait before someone meets your price point.
You can't catch any fish if you're not fishing.
