Agreed. I always pay more for eye appeal. Often quite a bit more. Especially on higher-end cards.
In the last PWCC premier auction, there were two 1952 Topps Mickey Mantles that sold. One was a 1.5, the other was a 3.5. The 1.5 sold for more than the 3.5 entirely because of eye appeal despite the fact that it had a giant crease across Mantle's face.
