Posted By: <b>John</b><p><br />We always seem to beat up on grading companies for giving out too nice a grade, a card that looks like a 1 that receives a 4 you get the picture. <br /><br />So what about the cards that look like 7,8’s that get graded really low. You’ve been over the card a thousand times and just can’t figure why it got the hammer. Have em’ share em’ here’s mine. <br /><br />Not beating up grading companies’ time just post the ones that made you scratch your head. <br /><br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn3/smileys/websize/image006.jpg"><br />

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>Nope Quan no crease line, I’ve been over the card many times it’s more like a surface imperfection, almost like pressure was applied and made a line. It doesn’t break the paper or show on the back. The only way I can describe it is its almost like if you write real hard with a ballpoint pen and it leaves an impression on the surface below. Back is clean and clear. <br /><br />Not here to argue if the grade is warranted just a thread to show really nice under-graded cards, or cards that are stellar examples of their grade. <br />

Posted By: <b>joe brennan</b><p>John, You shouldnt be stuck with a card graded like that. I will gladly take it off your hands at a PSA 3 price........J/K...it is way too sharp for a 3. Out<br><br>"I had the right to remain silent. I just didn't have the ability" Ron White

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>I'm looking at this card on a 46" LCD screen set 1280x720 and I can't see this line. Guess I'm going blind.<br /><br />Jay<br><br>My place is full of valuable, worthless junk.

Posted By: <b>jay wolt</b><p>If one buys the card, not the holder you can get some great deals.<br />Here is a HOFer I won from DSL for under $20. <br />Its a El Principe De Gales back that has some tiny paper loss & an imprint of a stamp mount or tape residue on the back...jay<br /><br /><img src="http://www.qualitycards.com/pictures/11498466.jpg">
