Centered?

Yes on the first part. But do people pay more because the cards are stickered, or does PWCC do a good hob of identifying cards that are strong for the grade (thereby commanding a higher price)? I don’t think there’s evidence to prove which one is accurate.

Given the huge premiums I've seen, I would say at least in part it's the stickers. I've sold very high end for the grade cards on ebay and they don't do squat. And I've seen PWCC stickered cards that I felt were unworthy of any special sticker go very high.

Come on, guys, take it easy on the seller. He is clearly pointing to the fact that Cy Young himself is centered, you know, focused, intense. That's all it is.

As opposed to Mark Fidrych, perhaps?

I guess I’m not ready to claim causality, as there are other factors (including the number of people PWCC has in its network).

Well you can't do a controlled study, so you can only go with what evidence is out there. I think it's pretty clear but in the end I couldn't prove it to you. But I am guessing the very reason Brent does it is because he too thinks it raises hammer prices.

The flip is well centered.

Does centered only count for left-to-right? Because I think the centering top-to-bottom is fairly nice. I would agree that there is vertical centering on this card.

A glass half full guy/girl right here, folks. Isn't it time for a well centered card to be shown?
