Jason, I think I should mention to be fair, that if I buy a card for resale that I do not take the time to soak and roll it or do anything for that matter.
My soaking is for me and for my collection. Though it will be sold eventually as the cards will out last me.
I thought I had soaked the Green Cobb as it was going to be my new keeper card. Wonka has been looking at buying my entire T206 binder with full set and all of the errors and printing freaks.
I have 4 fairly large T206 deals that I have purchased over the last few years and was going to start a new T206 set and this Cobb is the only green I would have after the sale. I actually got this Cobb from Wonka.
If you will see my listings, I try to mention creases and many of the cards I have sold had creases and were sold just like that. Many could have been soaked to enhance but weren't. And I always accept returns on raw cards and on most graded ones too.
Though I would not have a problem buying a card that was soaked and rolled, I do see your point and realize it may bother people.
Paperloss on back of a card bothers me and many auction houses only picture fronts. I got smoked on a T207 lot from Mastronet years ago from this. Though they did grade them as poor or fair to good, I expected full cards. They did offer me to return them so there was no problem with customer service.
As always, I appreciate your input. Even about my tongue and cheek
take care Jason
