<< <i>So if you don't like his prices, it's pretty simple - don't buy from him.
But if you are in need of a rare card, you can either (a) pay the premium and get it from him, or (b) sit and need the card and spend more time and energy searching for it.
If people are buying the cards, they are obviously happy with the pricing.

In lieu of the original post, Levi got some of the exact same buyes that are bidding crazy for whatever they need on auction night. Couldn't they just visit his store?? Instead of and get this clogging up my ebay searches,,,,,,,, must be cheap listig day
Yes, it clogs my searches. So does a listing flood from Joe Yanello, Mike Wheat, or anyone else who has a huge vintage inventory and takes advantage of the discount listing day promotion. One of my searches went from typically 40 to 80 hits to almost 400. I just deal with it, primarily by skipping through the listings that are put up in rapid time succession and have the same title style.
I figure anything they sell eliminates one more buyer in competition for the next one.
I personally like the .10 & .20 cent listing day specials. As a seller, I don't seem to be to motivated as yesterday I put on just 7 lots. But as a buyer who is working on half a dozen sets its great to have more listings to choose from. And a week from now they will all be gone, so really no harm done...jay

$ 175.00 for a 1978 Munson PSA 9? Not!
I took a friend to see Gregg Allman & Friends tonite at the Pompano Beach Outdoor Amphitheatre (Two Ticketmaster tics $ 99.50, plus a few rum runners (double shots! ), and an Amber Bock, I spent over $175)
And I was on my feet singing "Not Going to Catch the Midnight Rider", along with 5,000 other baby boomers!

But you'd exchange 2 such nights plus $25 for a PSA 10 Whitaker rookie??
Just busting your chops, sounds like fun. I don't even know who Gregg Allman & Friends are, but given the Michigan weather we've seen lately, the "Pompano Beach Outdoor Amphitheatre" sounds very nice.
