I haven't been paying attention lately(1), but for quite a while I was watching
SC and Ebay prices, and they were generally comparable. Within a few percent,
in fact. Although I will confess that I tossed (IMO) extraneous data

1:Because I've been broke. And when I watch auctions, I buy things in
auctions. ;)
2:When set xxxx goes for $50-$75 once or twice a week, and one of them sells
for >$100, I consider it an extraneous data point.
