>In your neighbor's house example, it would be like if there was a street market auction for trading cards happening in your neighbor's front yard, but in the house your neighbor and another neighbor had gotten together to trade 100x the average #of cards using the prices they hear from outside, and the people outside only see the deal they made after it's done.
I mean, that's literally what happens with trading cards. It's super common to base face-to-face deals (whether for cash or trades) on internet pricing, including very big ones. (the trading card market is a lot less liquid, though, so it's also common for there to be a fairly big discount or premium on those prices in the deal for various reasons)
