Indeed, worthy of some attention at least...

-1 for failing to mention the fade

I think it should have been mentioned, but I don't fault them for not mentioning it. After all, does something that obvious really even need to be mentioned? Anybody can see that it's faded. It's not like it's a hidden crease or something. We all saw it. But, hey, if it throws PWCC under the bus, lets go for it, right?

Sure it's obvious but in light of the glowing praise thrown at the card it bears mentioning IMO. You have yours, I have mine.

I would feel the same way regardless of the seller by the way.

At the end of the day as long as the number on the flip is not faded, what does it matter, right?

Regardless the description is a reflection of the seller. I'm surprised they didn't slap their pwcc certified looks great for the grade moniker on it as well? To say it is one of the nicest of its kind without mentioning its obvious negatives...is a poor reflection on the seller.

It's obvious some have an axe to grind with PWCC. Funny to me though how the auction description wasn't even mentioned in this thread until it was pointed out that the card was faded from the light, not as a result of soaking.

It's as if y'all thought, "Ok, the light faded explanation makes sense, so what other dirt can we dig up? Oh yeah, let's nail him on the fluffy auction description."

That's it for me. I'm going to a card show at Sheraton Houston West this morning, because I actually like cards, not sitting around complaining about them and those that sell them. Y'all have fun bashing sellers today. I'm going to go enjoy the hobby.
