Auction Card Quality - General Question

[Nunzio11]

That's for the reponses. Not trying to call attention to anything yet. I don't think there are deceptive practices going on and I don't feel cheated so this is more for my own knowledge and hopefully for others as well. But...
If, for example you won an early 60's "Ex 5" lot, would you expect obvious wrinkles, spider lines, and or wax on the face of the card(s)? Things not visible by scan but very obvious in hand.

I would expect soft corners, off centering and some small dings overall.

Just want to make sure I'm looking at things the right way.

To be clear this is auction house stuff not eBay. I assume eBay as a crap shoot and buyer beware. As far as auction houses go I guess it can be hit or miss also.
