Now imagine if you sold the cards off a web site with a whole bunch of others. Now over the course there is a whole bunch of collectors that have acquired these things. Now when she shows up at a show, shitloads of them show up with their cards to be signed.
I've seen it happen time and again with the Benchwarmer girls. The cards are sold and traded all over the place, then when a girl shows up at a show, guys are all over her with their cards to be signed. She gets paid to be on the card to begin with, or just for her photo shoot to begin with, but at the show she makes bank, and they collectors are back on the sites looking for more cards later. Its part of the nature of the beast with trading cards as a collectible in general.
She didn't sell her cards there because the market was not prepped for them to begin with, but the collectors who were brought them with.
