they can tout high grade if honest pictures and great scans....again buy the card not the holder..was big discussion about paying a psa 8 price on a psa 6 card or somethiing like that because buying the card not the grade...so if that psa 6 card was cracked and the seller says its high grade..wouldnt he be right since that card psa 6 card did sell at a psa 8 price or at least a few grades above...it was a rizzuto card i brought up on an earlier post....everyone made it clear that the 2 grade higher bid was fine cause they were buying the card not the grade.....

now you dont let someone crack a card who asks people to buy the card not the grade? seems like those views are in opposite ..again assuming no dishonest pictures..

i think if you are buying the card not the grade..the seller doesnt need to disclose a prior grade...cause you are buying the card not the grade....plus as you know cards get resubmitted and get different grades..

or perhaps can we all agree we always are buyng the grade a least a little..not just the card....

if you are too hurt to miss work, it wont hurt to miss work.. and they give you cash which is just as good as money

buy the card not the holder..who cares what the holder says if you are just buying the card and honest scans...'

i myself just dont buy the card..the holder factors into it...i dont bid on raw cards..but dont understand why people who are 'buy the card not the holder' would be upset of sellers who crack cases and sell the card..again if give honest pictures and evaluations...

At least one of the sellers mentioned doesn't have good scans. They have small scans where you can't see any detail besides centering, and usually a light background that hides edge and corner damage.

That's what most of us have a problem with.
