Touching on Ian's point, I'll add this:

236. Deceiviation
When someone is touting a major Hall of Famer card for sale, but when you look at the listing, you find it’s not the player’s ‘regular’ card, but a much-less-desirable combination card, World Series or league leaders card, a checklist or even a 1975 Topps MVP card.

An example of your thread titles is, "Who is looking for 1960T and 1962T Mantle? Moving with a pair of Banks too."
The title clearly says ('suggests') you have both a 1960 Topps #350 and a 1962 Topps #200 Mantle available (which 99% of Net54ers are interested in), but opening the thread shows the Mantles to be 'lesser' multi-player cards...and it's disappointing to anyone who decided to click on it.

Take it for what it's worth. Be specific with what you have to offer.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
