I know this subject has been on the board previously but I felt it important to give the yearly warning on this company. I recently won a 49 Bowman Paige card for approximately $2500 from this seller. Before I bid I asked if they touched up their photos posted on the listings as the borders seemed impossibly white for a card of this age. They responded that they did not (but curiously did not post the Q & A on the listing). Anyway, I won the auction, paid $60 for shipping and handling and insurance (even though the card was wrapped in newspaper inside a box and had postage of $29.45 on the box) and received the card today. Wouldn't you know it but the card's borders were about 15 shades darker than in the listing's picture! Clearly the photo was messed with. I still love the card obviously but felt that I should at least post this warning about them.
