If you think that card is a 5.0, then I have a bridge in Brooklyn, as well as some Florida swamp land, I'd like to sell you.

2.5 is about right. I think a 2.0 is even potentially justified.

I think the card is over graded but presents well anyway.

I am by no means a grading expert. My set building is strictly raw cards. I just looked at the grade description at the SGC site and it seemed to fit. But, I am now edumacated gooder.

But, to your offer, I was thinking about investing in real estate. PM me, man.

Poor or fair. 2.5 generous. Certain issues like this should garner automatic poor or fair designation , the other factors don't matter in terms of technical grade. If you want to say the other nicer qualities add eye appeal so be it

This is a problem with many cards that appear on eBay. When I scroll through and see a card described as "excellent," which is the condition I try to collect, I find cards with rounded corners, creases, and other forms of damage which is annoying. Even on the collector forums collectors complain if their card gets fails to receive the desired grade. So, I wonder if it is due to knowing how to accurately grade a card, wishful thinking, trying to get a top price or a combination of all of these factors.

Phil, I like to think of it as there are a lot of optimistic graders in this world.
