Check out this Mint/Nearmint card !

Check out this Mint/Nearmint card !
I was pretty happy the other day to pick up a center stage for 1.04 .......Until I received it in the mail today. So I dont even know whether its worth it to ask for a refund or just trash the card so nobody else gets it.

I would ask for a refund just out of principal. I have been getting so frustrated with the online auctions recently. The cast majority of 90s cards that I have won have come is much worse shape than advertised. I had a Pierce show up that was in similar shape recently. When I bought it I noticed the seller had several and had them send me another.

I'm pretty sure if you tell them that the card was significantly not as described in the auction they will refund you your money back. For a $1.04 sale, they couldn't have made a profit anyways.

The way they had it in the picture you couldnt tell the corners had been trimmed to look sharp but as soon as I pulled it out of the envelope I could see it.

RE: Check out this Mint/Nearmint card !
This is exactly why I have gone to primarily buying graded cards. I was not as knowledgable or aware of condition when I first starting collecting again. After looking through some of my collection of cards that I bought on Ebay, I quickly became disgusted at the condition of some cards. Even now that I am more aware, I look at cards and it is horrible the condition cards come in. Like I have said before, a lot of these sellers simply put out 100's of auctions at a time and do not carefully examine the condition. Even if I see a dent on the surface that would not overal affect the grade drastically (probably still in the NRMT category, 8-8.5), I still list it. I would rather be 100% honest and lose a couple bucks then lie or omit the truthnad lose out completly like this seller will.

Most MJ collectors seem to be doing the same, I have seen a lot of the cheaper graded 9.5 sub $100 cards being sold very quickly of late...

Must be the new trend...

When people can buy a Graded MJ 9.5 for $30 and the BV of the card is $30, it makes sense to get those over the next 5 "nr-mint" ungraded cards that will likely only grade BGS 8.5...
