The question posed is is this is how I ALWAYS GRADE cards.

1. This was a mistake in the title that has since been corrected. This was very clearly pictured and accurately described. This seems to be someone looking for something to waste unnecessary verbiage about. The point is full disclosure when buying and selling this stuff. This was mentioned by a few people on this thread.

2. What is this anger about? Where does the venom on the part of some of these posters come from? This is supposed to be a fun hobby. For Mr Behrens (who has WAY TOO MUCH TIME ON HIS HANDS), his question is apparently is he entitled to a 15% refund as well as a full refund on a card? My answer is no but I would amplify this point by pointing out that he never asked for this anyhow - except for a year and a half later on a public forum. Some people are just who they are, I suppose.

3. Back to the question. IT SEEMS MONUMENTALLY UNFAIR TO PICK 1 LOT OUT OF 1000 TO BASE GRADING. If you guys really want to at least make a reasonable intellectual argument, why not look at scans of at least 10 or 20 cards at random and make comments. I will even provide back scans of these cards if we want to push this point. Why not go to www.csauctions.com, click on top ten lists and then make at least an effort at having a fair and balanced opinion.
