this is a good topic
registration is one of my most important criteria when deciding on a purchase. Off-register T206 cards irritate me to no end - I can't enjoy looking at the card, so what good is it? I pass up several ebay auctions because I can't tell if the scan stinks or the card is off-registered...I try to make some judgement call based on the slab's flip lettering, but if it's too close to call, I will go on to the next one. Learned my lesson on a 75 Yount rookie that was PSA 8+ in every way, but got it delivered to find that it looked like a 3-D freakshow...and with the 75 borders, that is quite a tough card to stare at...
To further answer the question...it affects price negatively, but for me, I won't even buy them at a discount...why bother?
