A chance to get a card you really like but. .
How do you guys feel about cards that have a really nice (say ex) front but have a flaw on the reverse (like a small mark or small piece of tape) that brings the technical grade down to a 2 and this ex looking card that is technically a 2 could be had for about the price of a 3?
I would add that it is a nicer looking specimen than what I could usually get, thanks to the little issue on the reverse. Monetarily, it would be the most I have paid for a single card . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

As long as the back is not too distracting for you I'd say go for it. Those types of cards can be true gems. Good luck!

I would say as long as the front is the focus, I would go for it. These are my favorite type of cards. Now if it is a card where the back is a bigger deal (T206 back, etc), then may be a different story. High eye appeal and lower grade is fine with me all day!

That is MY take. Yours is what matters to you. My not even be a T206 that you are talking about. |

I will pay 3 money for a 2 that looks like a 4. All day. For my collection, it’s about how the card hits my eye, not how the flip hits my eye; so if I am getting grade X eye appeal for less than grade X would normally cost me, good stuff.

It wouldn't bother me at all, but you're the one that has to live with it. As long as you like it, it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks.
