"There's a great Cobb in Mastro's new auction."

Already said before but when people say

"LOW POP"

It makes me throw up in my mouth a little bit, especially when it is like a 1916 zeenut graded a 2 just because only 3 cards have ever been graded of that player.

As a former store owner the words I didn't want to hear were, "I used to have all these cards as a kid, but my mom threw them away." If I heard it once, I heard it a million times.

From a seller: "I paid ..... for it."

When I was living in Nepal if a shop owner started down that road, I would cut them off and say, "If you tell me what you paid, I am walking out the door and never returning." Once they resort to that, it is almost impossible to go lower and often the number is not true.

on ebay, "+++++++++++"

I've never understood why PSA and SGC don't add those to their grades.
