Default Scanning cards for auction

Posted By: Nick

As a buyer, I look for latin player cards from the 50's and 60's and I buy T-cards based on their backs. Many sellers don't know the difference a back can make in value. The Black backs and Grey back of the 50's are overlooked by most and are often times not mentioned. I also look for certain factory numbers on t-cards. Most sellers of T206 cards will only list what type of back it is(for example "card has common piedmont back"). But what about the rare piedmont factory #42 NC back that is very valuable? I feel t-cards should always have a picure of atleast a detailed description of the back.

From a sellers perspective. If I am selling a card that is valued below $20 that has no back variations and or damage; I do not feel it is worth it to take the time to post a picture of the back. I always give a detailed desciption of the back regardless of the value.
