Hmmm...decisions, decisions...

Perhaps the price on the second one is justified, because it is a very good candidate for a re-sub. Maybe getting bumped up to a PSA 10.5 isn't entirely out of the question??


Note to anyone unfamiliar with the set: the last five PSA 10 Fisks went for $70, $61, $49, $49, $46.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Pretty sure it’s better centering. The higher priced version has perfect dead center 50/50 centering all around, whereas the lower priced version suffers from a severe 49/51 centering top-bottom. It’s so obvious that it almost leaps right off the page!

No, your eyes aren't fooling you, that indeed reads, "Centered HOF!"

I think what happens with a lot of lazy eBay sellers is that when they list a new item for sale they take a templated prior version and don’t bother adjusting the listing’s key features because that would take additional time and effort.

What irritates me is how many sellers grossly over describe the condition of their listing and the seller still has a 100% rating and a 5.0 for accurate description.

This is what I mean. How is this seller highly rated? I see this over and over again from so many sellers with perfect ratings.

Hahaha…technically Willie’s head is pretty well centered on the card.

I think he just copied the item title for the Mays card from another seller (#334553885681) and didn't bother to edit it.
