Marc,

As you well know, many here complain about Levi's business model simply because he has cards they want at prices higher than they want to pay. The easy solution would be for them (me included, sometimes) to go buy those cards elsewhere. If only his inventory wasn't so damn deep!

As someone else said, apparently he'll take less than his BIN's. I've never bought anything from him because he's primarily 1950's/1960's Topps. I know people who know him well and he is CLEARLY not hurting for cash flow.

I've bought two cards from Levi (I think) -- '52 Topps Minoso and Pitler. Both transactions went smoothly although I may have paid more than 'market value,' at least as reflected by eBay auctions.

I don't see how anyone can criticize a seller for the price he asks for his product. After all, they're Levi's cards. Good friend Dan McKee is asking very serious money for his unique Guy Zinn, and all I know is that I keep buying lottery tickets.

I'm not even sure why they have the best offer option on the BINs. Obviously they are his cards and he can ask whatever he wants, but any time I've made a best offer I get a counter offer that's under 2% less than the BIN price when the card is usually priced about 30% higher than what it would actually sell for.
