Hard to know

Hard to know if the out of focus bird's eye pic of the cards has hurt or helped the sale $'s.. Some of the most successful "large vintage finds" on eBay seem to benefit from leaving out information or omitting good scans and it seems like there is always the buyer who wants "strike gold" and ends up overpaying...

At the same time, if you were to show a close-up of every card and disclose every crease, etc. than it is unlikely you would a "homerun" in terms of an offer as people could calculate to the "t" (pun intended) the value of each card...Plus the seller has admitted time is a factor here.

At the end of the day, the seller is reasonable to solicit offers on a huge lot like this and providing the story is an acceptable sales technique...Also, if the seller is reading this and has a single Hindu Brown to sell me plz send me a PM
