I don't pay a whole lot of attention to the big auctions. Hardly any of them have lots I can afford. I have seen a few lately where the population descriptions indicate the number of unknowns as well as where the card is in the known backs. So it may be changing.

The ones I find amusing are the ones with stuff like "one of 50 at this grade with only 175 higher"

Someday they'll include factory info for sets with multiple factories as well. Until then it's almost entirely guesswork and estimating.

Has anybody else noticed that PSA started including Series/Factory info on their flips? (not my cards)
