I used to hear this all the time at shows with reference to new, overproduced wax: "drying up."

"missing color" when the card has back damage and/or glue staining

"razor sharp corners"

comparing past sales of a card with no qualifiers to the oc or mc card they're
trying to sell.

More of a pet peeve. When people bump their thread after selling it. Congrats on the sale, but I don't need to know you sold a card from 3 months ago.

Card is graded a PSA1 and listed as "high end". .... Not a peeve I think it's funny!

Describing a lot as "huge", when there are 12 cards in the lot.

Describing a card as "has huge boarders". C'mon people, it is "borders".

"Listening to offers". Put a price on the damn thing.

"make offer" just put a price on it and I will or won't buy it
"for trade" LOL, only if your card(s) are worth 10X what mine is/are
"error card" when it obviously isn't
"picture available on request"
Last but not least "book value(BV)" then they use the BV of a NrMint card to try and sell their vg beater.

Many more bother me but I don't want to post a few hundred silly hobby terms.

Huge borders would be important to me as a buyer, especially on something like a high end t206 card. It means it's at least very likely the card hasn't been trimmed.
