Default OC cards scanned with a tilt

Why is it so many guys when they have a off centered card, will scan it with a tilt as not to see how off center the card is--drives me crazy.--

Default Slab Fail

I find with T206's that the tabs inside PSA holders can be made to hide/distract from subtle tilts on o/c cards easily, especially without a dark background in an unfocused scan or pic.

If a card is in the middle of the woods with no one around to see it, can it have a tilt?

Such a card in the forest presumes that the forest is off-center.

The Earth's axis is tilted 23.5 degrees from the plane of its orbit around the sun.

We're all tilted. Let it go.

Agreed. Bugs the h-ll out of me too.

I always wondered if that was intentional, should have known.

Check their other listings, 9x out of 10 centered cards are scanned, tilted cards they use a cell phone photo. I've noticed this a few times. Sad state of affairs
