EBay Lot of 502

Picking up large lots of Wallach cards on eBay over the years has been perhaps my most effective method of acquiring new ones.  The last few years though, they seem to be few and far between.  Or rather, reasonably priced ones are.  I typically ignore any listings that are asking more that 10¢ per card.  The cards above were part of a lot of 507 Wallach cards I purchased recently.  With shipping, they came out to less than 5¢ a card.  I think that's a fair price for what amounts to a large box of junk wax.  Everyone walks away happy.  I mean, I would love to unload junk wax one 500 count box at a time at a profit of about $10 per box.  Which makes me wonder what the sellers asking upwards of 50¢ a card in lots are thinking.  The market for these Wallach lots consists of me, and I've set the going rate at about a nickel.  I can't imagine lots of Kelly Gruber cards are going for any more than that either.

The highlight of this lot for me was a 1987 Topps that had a "slant cut."  I have over 800 copies of that card, but this is the first one I've seen with the slant cut.  Take a look below, where I've scanned next to a regular cut copy:
