Does a back that is miscut bother you?
 
Does a back that is OC bother you?

I voted sometimes. If I can see all of the text intended to be on the back it does not bother me. If it is miscut such that text is missing, then it does bother me.

I know this is a poll, and I will vote in just a moment. That said, I figured I'd elaborate on my feelings here. I don't mind a miss cut card on the back, but if the card is graded as a PSA 9 or higher, I'd much prefer the back be as centered as possible.

I've bought a few psa 7's that would be 8 or 9 based on front, and only a 7 due to back OC. For instance, a beautiful 1966 Willie Mays #1, in PSA 7 but with front centering and corners of an 8-9, for an "average VCP price" for a 7, due to an OC back. Probably my favorite card.

I also often display cards in glass. Backs don't get seen that way anyway

I went somethings . It really depends . I won't like it on anything modern. There are a few card that are notorious for this 1968 topps bench, Ryan. I'm fine with that. I got a1955 bowman Willie mays the back is miscut the front is perfect as far as centering go.there is a corner wrinkle on the front corner and one on the back in a different corner. I got it for 25 bucks ! So none of that bothers me .

I never see the back of the card when displayed, so it makes no difference to me at all (assuming I can get it for a little discount)! :)

I voted sometimes, as long as the front looks good and the corners are relatively sharp.

voted sometimes.

really only on 73's due to their notorious back centering.

to find a nicely front and back centered clemente is like finding "dry land".

Nothing bothers me about cards - miscuts (the bigger the better) or otherwise conditioned. Even when I was pulling from packs on the wayback, I was always concerned more about a player I desired. And now, when all you guys are trying to make me go neuro::p about centering and corners and sh*t, I am not deterred. Nope, nothing bothers me about miscuts...except when I go to sell them:D;)

It would bother me on any card but I could live with it on certain key cards if the front looks nice.

Tripredacus 05-27-2016 10:58 AM

Never, I love miscuts.

Depends. I picked up a gorgeous 1975 graded 9 o/c with a dead centered front and a 90:10 back. I was pleased as could be. If it cuts off the stats on a card perhaps. Just depends on the price.n I'm generally buying a lot more o/c cards lately as long as the centering has decent eye appeal and the price is right because I personally don't mind mild o/c for my own modern cards.

If the back is borderless...not so much. However...if back has a defined border such as 1968s for example...then it is hard on the eyes.

I, too, voted sometimes. It depends on the card. I agree that so long as the printing isn't cut off, it really doesn't bother me.
