They must have tightened up a lot on creases.

My three biggest surprises were creased.

This one presents really well in hand, nice corners but one is missing a tiny flake of surface. Less than some rounded corner 50's I saw at the time. When I asked about it the guy pointed out the tiny hardly visible crease/wrinkle about halfway up on the left side.
I'd expected much better than a 50


While this one has a light crease down the center. Very typical of cards that got a little stuck in a page or were sloppily removed. If I remember it right it runs down to about shoulder height.
I'd expected a solid 30, since it's pretty nice but creased. Crease can't be any better than good right? Wrong I guess....


The this one, expecting a 30 at best, rounded corners, corner crease, overall edge wear.
Nope! VG??? Ok, I can live with that.



Before I made a a few submissions, I'd have said that creases always make for g-vg at best. Now I'm not so sure.
