I mostly agree.
The exception would be if they were doing something like just listing stuff that had already been Id'd and lotted but found something special that had been missed. I think then it might be nice for them to get a little something extra.
One time I was at a dealers and got to look at some crds they'd made an offer on but didn't have a solid del yet. When I casually remarked that it was the first time I'd seen 49 Leaf high numbers (what they were called then, despite being mixed in with the regualr ones) There was a bit of surprise shown followed by another look and some consternation. In the end they explained that they'd totally missed the fact that some were the tough ones, and that made the batch worth a lot more so they revised the offer. Apparently everyone else had missed it too.
I got a few nice discounts later on, but not the massively discounted SP that I'd hinted at. I never figured on getting it anyway and didn't push it, and the unexpected discounts later were a pretty nice perk for spotting the SPs.
I like Ebay shopping the big dealers who have people helping them. Lots of nice stuff that slides under the radar, mostly stamps, but it's nice to catch a mislisted BIN now and then.
