t206 Blank Back vs Printers Scrap

[Archive]

Posted By: davidcycleback

A seller of a blank back can simply give nice pics, describe the edges (rough cut, oversized, whatever) and let the bidders decide what to call it. There's no law that says you have to label it as scrap or not. While some scraps are obviously scraps (oversized, obvious printing errors, obviously handcut) Jaimie's are not so obvious one way or the other. One has a bit of a rough cut, while the other looks machine cut (though cut crooked). I can only see two cards, but both might be factory cuts with handling and wear. You see factory cut T206s with worse wear than those. Scraps often to usually have much wilder cuts, obviously cut by hand.

Verdict: Blank backs? Yes. Scrap or factory cut? Not necessary to answer. With big pics and physical description, bidders can form their own opinions.
