Just bought a card. Is this scanner dust? - stera8 - 12-16-2012

Hey how are you all this weekend?

Just bought a 2012 joey gallo Aflac off the bay. I did a last minute bid and the seller hasn't answered me back yet about the white marks on gallos arm....


I assume they are scanner dust...what do you think?

Thanks for the help

Tough to say but it looks like it is.
It could be particles on the card itself. I have had very good luck getting spots and stuff off of the chrome cards with very soft cloths.
Good Luck

Well I hope you're wrong lol I just paid because I don't want to be 'that guy' who doesn't pay....

Hopefully it is just dandruff :happy:

Looks like its all over the card not just his arm, so most likely its dust from the scanner or something that will wipe right off. I wouldn't worry.

Either way its a great looking card. Hope it's just scanner dust. Does he have any other cards for sale that you can check those scans?

Stera, I think he meant does the seller have any more cards listed where you can check the scans.
