With the exception of Chris' example which is jarring each time I see it, I am 100% opposed to cell phone pics for 2D items. I will not bid on a card where the seller uses a cell pic. 99 times out of 100 they are shot on angles that distort the cards, poorly lit, there are reflections on the holders (if they are graded cards), images are usually blurry and simply do not allow me to assess a card properly for those things I would be looking for.

Besides those reasons, I am an anti cell phone guy at heart and find it to be the lazy approach to capture a card however those who do it will deem it convenient. If it was such a great way to provide images of cards then every house would do it yet all scan.
