This falls under the category for all new collectors:
IF the grading company is not SGC, PSA, Beckett or GAI. YOu can not trust the card in the holder or a seller that would sell the cards in the "others" holders.
I am one that has a problem expecting the seller to describe a graded card. If you have an issue with the grade take it up with the company, they are the ones that applied the grade, not the seller. (this is for the trusted 4, the rest your on your own).
I pay a little more for SGC cards with writing or stamps on the back because I think they grade them harshly and can get great looking cards with low technical grades from SGC.
I also have PSA cards on 5 holders that have creases that I now will never cross in to SGC holders at the same level. Why should I point out the fact it has a crease in it because it falls under the PSA criteria for an EX card and not mine (and most others). You as a buyer need to now the criteria the grading company has it's standards..
End of Rant,
Lee
