I am sure they recognize that some large sellers like 4SC, Dean's, etc. etc. have their own websites and indeed they are linked because if you buy something off the website it disappears instantly from ebay. As long as they are generating substantial ebay sales, ebay I am sure accepts the reality.

Peter, a known hobby fearmonger, is right for a change . Dean's has it's own web site, just like COMC and lists stuff on both. Cheaper on web site without the middle man. You give up ebay protections, but Dean has good service and long hobby reputation. As a long time customer I sometimes just email or call them with a best offer for something on their web site.

But for COMC you are best buying on ebay if you want the card this year

Even thru ebay COMC is extremely slow these days.

I have bought some raw cards from Dean, didn't think they were that off in price and they were accurately graded which one shouldn't take for granted.

I didn't think Deans was willing to entertain offers since there are discounts through their website based on how much you spend.
