Grading Standards - New vs. Old
I have learned over the years from hobby veterans that, back in the day before 3rd party grading, condition assessments practiced by card dealers were, shall we say, more lenient.
The listing to which I have provided a link below has a description and listing title (EX++) substantially out-of-line (in my opinion) with the photo. Would this be representative of an example of grading criteria of the days of yore? Or is this just an example of "salesmanship?" http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_500wt_1288

I would maybe call that old hobby grading from cards I have bought from Frisch and other old timers. Personally, if I were selling that card I would call it gd-gd+, maybe vg- ....

GD/VG but it is "Virtually Defect Free"
Always important to read the entire description
