right we know that...but should the grade means a range....
instead of me describing a card as a 7.5, i didnt feel like saying 'i had a card with a slight top to bottom tilt, one corner has a touch on it on it which i would say the touch is a 2 out of 10 with 1 being the best on the scale. The north east corner was a 1 out of 10, the southeast corner was 2 out of ten...there was a slight printer dot on the bottom left, there was a slight scuff....
I just like saying i had a 7.5.....saves time....yes all 7.5 arent equal...i thought mine was pretty good which was listed for 3500 or so .and a 8 just sold for 18k....thats all im saying....
