Hobby terms that annoy you

[smellthegum]

These when found in sale descriptions:

"Pack fresh"
"under graded" (yet you never see "over graded)
"For sell"
Using "+" in a description of a graded card that is a whole number grade. As in, "PSA 7+" in an attempt to imply the grade is higher than it is.

I've always found this irksome; let's say a card is in very good condition. The seller will have two prices: the high retail price of $100 and then "your price" of $35. It gives the impression that you're getting a deal but in reality the card being in lesser condition would sell for the $35 price.

'Sic'

I personally dislike, very much, the term “Super Collector”.

I don't know if it's been said already because I wasn't going through all the pages "minty" has to be the worst word ever

My favorite is when they are describing cards such as 1948/1949 Bowmans as having "wonderful gloss".....when the cards never had gloss on them to begin with!!! I'm thinking,.."Do they even look at the cards they are selling?"

[Hardspun8]

My favorites are MOJO, sic/sick, elite/leet, fire, lit, or any other word people started to use in the early 2000's to describe cards. Also the over use of the White Whale term. It should be use for cards that are hard to find and rare, not for an expensive nonrare card that you had to save up for.

A BVG graded card with PSA? SGC? In the listing
PSA 1 very high end (with a dime sized chunk out of the back)
