Your point is well taken on incorrect grading by sellers on raw cards, but at least if I see the scan and any other info I have something to go build data for current market on raw cards.

Perhaps a follow up question is how do most on the board determine market value on raw cards? It seems lately that I seem to be bidding against fools that are taking the sellers grade as gospel and bidding using SMR as a guide. Kinda sounds like I'm just bitching now.
