Hi Leon, how goes it?
Today's newer "collectors" are being trained to buy cards strictly on 3 things: 1) the slab 2) the centering 3) the corners (in no specific order). Nothing can show/describe the characteristics of a card (or memorabilia item) better than the seller. There are so many variables that can be hidden from the cpu screen (even if you have an 8 foot wall mounted screen!) and can only be seen by the holder. Through direct sunlight or tilted a certain way or under high powered magnification, etc.
Did you ever buy a card in a 4 or 5 holder only to see it had a "hidden" crease on the back? Was the picture of the back of the card even shown? A friend of mine bought a card in a 4.5 holder only to find out later, it had a tiny tear in it... So please, describe the condition in detail, it is after all, kind of important in determining the value.
