6) Out of Focus Image
7) Trimmed Edges
8) Heavy surface staining
9) Major Loss of surface gloss/wear
10) Noticeable Paper loss back
The only ones I will do the two-step with is: 2, 3 and MAYBE 4. Feel free to add a few major defects to the list.

I only collect mid-grade. A small crease or wrinkle is fine. Moderate corner wear is fine as well. I have no problem with centering issues as they were caused by the factory and not subsuquent collectors.
