I really don't get how this concept still doesn't seem to get through to people, but centered vintage cards are worth MUCH more than OC copies. Multiples more. At least 1.5x comps, and usually 2x to 3x comps for key vintage cards. And if they look undergraded in addition to being centered, cards can often go 4x or 5x comps.

So, when it comes to the two most overused words in cards right now, "eye appeal", as long as the card is somewhat centered (even though it's centered due to trimming), it's ok for that said card to have enough creases to make it look like a road map? If you think the card we're speaking of has "eye appeal" with all the creases and off-white color, then dude, you need to lay off that hippie lettuce a little. I'm happy it went for so much since I have a much better one in a 5. On to more important things, Jerry Reed IS the only Snowman, period. Change your screen name!
