Now e-bay does not charge for additional scans, but at one time they did. As an e-bay seller of tobacco cards for 8 years, part of the reason is also because some of the backs do not look as nice as the front of the cards do. Therefore some sellers feel it's going to hurt the sale of the card.

Default Back scans

As a collector of 1933 WWG's it is very frustrating not to have a back scan, as the issue came with two different backs, one French/English and one English only. I suspect some sellers probably don't post a back scan out of ignorance as to there being back variations. I also agree with previous posters that lack of a back scan tends to make me suspicious as to the exact condition of the card.

It's not that hard with all the photo editing tools out there to add them to the same picture and still get a free image. I do it on all my vintage stuff



Sure it take an extra 30 seconds per card but well worth it in the final sale price.

Default scans

You can add as many scans as you want to put in the description area and they are all free. Takes about 30 seconds to cut and paste the links from photo bucket.

Default ebay and many auction houses....

Many sellers on ebay and many auction houses don't put back scans. Unless it's a blank back I want to see a scan of it. It is one of my pet peeves.....It kind of pisses me off but I can live with it on a lower dollar card. ON an expensive card (say $100+) I really want to see a back scan (unless it's a blank back, then a description will do...such as "clean back"...or "back has an ink mark"). And one other thing. My eyesight isn't that great so don't make your scans so I need to search for my loupe when viewing them. regards
