What are your "hangups" on card condition or holders?

Very improtant to me centering as well, (unless im looking for a badly mis cut just to have one like that. if there is a creace, i dont want it over the player, and corners should be decent.

I have bought real great looking cards, BUT they has hole punches in them (not on the player) and i was ok with that.

I'd say I'm a centering nut as well. I am however becoming more tolerant of small corner creases or wrinkles that don't impact the overall eye appeal.

I hate marks on cards. That's probably my biggest pet peeves. Otherwise, it's just that I like my cards to have decent eye appeal and affordability, so I can put up with other issues but try to upgrade when it's a good value.

Without a doubt it is clipped corners (I guess I hate octagons but love cards originally made as circles?), second would be obvious trimming of an edge.

Even slightly off-focus cards turn me off.

I hate to get a new card in the mail only to find the slab is scuffed/scratched. How hard is it to keep a graded card in a protective sleeve? They only cost about two and a half cents each as you can get a pack of 100 for about $2.50.

I hate it when the ad back is upside-down or a layer of ink color was left off. If the back ad is totally missing, I think I should get my money back. Incorrect names printed at the top of the card are also a turn-off.

Getting a slabbed card in the mail with sticky price sticker glop still on the holder. Greasy pizza fingerprints don't help either. I guess I just hate to clean up another person's mess.

Scott, I hate that too. Just send them my way and I will dispose of them for you. I am trying to remove all these from the market/hobby

Easy one, centering and focus are my pet peeves. Stains and slight creasing don't really matter to me as long as it's not excessive and corners aren't an issue either with me. But if the focus is off or it's badly off center I'm passing, even if it's a card that I really want.

I don't like scuffs, writing marks, creases, trimming, holes, or wrinkles. I actually don't have an issue with centering, unless it is way off, because that is how the card was issued.
