Ebay Authentication is a Comical JOKE.

Poor: Is extremely worn and displays flaws all over

This is not the same thing as listing a card condition like NM or EX or VG, however. There are radio buttons to do this on ebay and they more or less insinuate what you are saying. But as a card person, "Excellent" in their definition here doesn't have much to do with card condition. This is my problem with the system. It's not clear from eBay's perspective what is intended here really - as the same condition choices exist for electronics as they do sports cards.
