eBay T206 raw individual auction - all appear normal?

[JasonD08]

Could be from an old school collector considering everything is graded about 2 grades higher than it really is. This seems to fall in line with the old raw graders that "graded" cards before PSA and others.

Saw them. Was shocked at most of the ending prices based on their condition.

I won one of them on Saturday at a reasonable price.

I admit I only looked at the scans on my phone and I thought it looked fine.


Just looked again and the borders - all appear normal size. I don't believe it looks trimmed or fake. The bottom border "may" be a little wavy, but it could very well be the scan.

I'll know for sure in a few days (assuming it doesn't sit in some post office for a week - as has been the case all too often lately)

+1...who wants to deal with the time and expense and corruption of the tpg'ers with common t206's anyway!!!!

Most of the ones he calls "EX+" are pretty much VG or VG+.

Were we really that bad at grading "back in the day"?

I think a decent percentage of them look trimmed, mostly along the bottom. But the majority seem unaltered. I remember this guy selling large groups like this in the past as well. I think they are nice cards from an old collection. And agree that his "EX" looks more like a VG+ to my eye.

I thought a few of them were trimmed as well. The eye appeal on those cards were simply amazing though. Lots of great color.
