Paper loss gets on my nerves and is usually the deal breaker unless it's an expensive card I would otherwise be unable to afford.

I don't mind beat up cards or paper loss, but writing on a card bothers me.

I have gotten wrapped up with the back variances lately on T206 since I'm completing runs. Other than that, I really don't care about the condition of the back if the front is clean. Ultimately, I collect players and not advertising so I like paying less for a card that presents well on the front.

I don't like paper loss or writing on a card either. I will purchase them if it's an example I need at the time. My deal breaker is clipped corners can't stand them unless it's a T210 Stengel im avoiding them

unless it is an ultra rare/scarce card I need(ie a miller I need for my run)...disfiguring writing on the front of a card...as well as incomplete cards(corners missing/holes) are dealbreakers for me.

back in the 80's-90's creases were also dealbreakers for me...but obviously I've had to relax this rule over the years!!!!!

Pieces missing or creases through the head area kill a card for me, unless it's really rare and I need it.

Same here but I'm still not there yet on heavy creases or creases through the center of a card. Corner creases or light paper loss on the reverse have become more tolerable for me. I'm still a centering snob unless it's a rare/scarce card.
