I love pinholes and tape stains
 

While I am being a bit sarcastic, I love how I can gets cards for a low price because they are psa 1’s due to pin holes or tape stains. Compare these cards to some of your 1’s - those cards look like there were dumped a a trash can after being played with by a three year old

Let’s see some of your favorite tape and pin 1’s

No scans, but I actually do have a few 48 Bowman football that were found in the trash. And on a rainy day... fortunately they were in a plastic page. One of the stranger things I found in the trash.
Of course, they're in poor condition, and at the time were probably worth about a quarter each.

Sometimes I feel the same about badly off-centered cards. As long as there's at least some border, I don't mind adding something nice to my collection at some of those steep omg-that-terrifying-centering discounts.

Picked up this decent Mick for the same as a typical PSA 1. If there is just a zillimeter more right border, it would sell for almost twice as much.

That’s a fabulous Paige - one of my all time favorite cards

pinholes
 

That's funny with the pinhole thing-

If your interested in buying the card ..and the price is high , you scream " really dude..its got a freakin pinhole in the card ! "..its no more the a graded 1 or A

If you selling , and the card has a pinhole..you go with " Man its a gorgeous card, its got one minuscule pinhole on the border , hardly noticeable , card would be a 4 or 5 easy:" !

So this one isn't graded by PSA, but with two pinholes, it might only grade a 0.5.

Slightly bigger than a pinhole, but close enough for me
 

I remember cards like that in art class. We would make mobiles out of them. Couldn’t find an example online but something like this. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...987a4fb67c.jpg
