If you're going to buy many of them online, definitely get a Comc account. You can make offers on cards and wait until you have hundreds and pay only one shipping price when you want to take delivery. You can filter out the Dean's cards by selecting either "raw" (usually EX or better) or "COMC" on the left menu bar.
If you see any you like of mine, send me a message on this site and I'll drop the price. But $2-3 sounds right for a nicely presenting common in VG.

I am probably the only one to have never used Comc. Are the prices there better than ebay?

I have found them to generally be better than eBay for commons. For some reason, I usually find stars are cheaper on eBay.

Thanks, Ed. I was operating under that impression from the comments I have seen over the last couple of years. Looks like it is time to sign up.

Oh, and feel free to ask questions. I love the site; it's enabled me to have a collection and place to buy/sell without a whole lotta packages coming and going from my house.

Spent some time on COMC. That site could be truly addictive! For the stuff I am looking for, much cheaper than ebay from what I saw.

You can add cards to your cart, then make offers to different sellers. Most sellers that cross-post their cards to Amazon or eBay (shown by the orange 'a' next to their name) usually automatically accept 20% off. Min site offer is 50% off, but sellers can reduce that, or not accept offers at all.

Or put cards on your watch list and wait for the seller to put them on sale. I always check "Recently posted" cards to see what is new on site.
