Being on the other side of one of the most popular aspects of the hobby really drives home how much people will pay for centering, especially when multiple examples are up for sale/auction at the same time.
It's not exactly news that centering is king, but I'm still kinda surprised how much surface damage people will ignore for centering. Some people won't even touch a card that's not mostly or totally centered. They don't even want to consider it unless it's extremely rare and even then they're looking to upgrade asap. There's a lot of them, too.

Exactly! As long as a card is centered people disregard the fact it's been doctored to get it centered, they overlook that it has more creases than Nancy Pelosis' face or that there is dog crap smeared on the front. But hey, the card MIGHT smell, but it's centered.
