I don't get this.
I mean it's not a good picture, but it looks like it might be a 4. Lowest graded so far is an 8.
Thoughts?

What don't you get? The fact that anyone would bid on something you can't even see?
A crayon drawing would be better.
Here's a raw one that sold for $333.00;

That is a horrible picture for sure...but yeah for $98, doesn’t seem like a bad purchase. Plus, I know this forum is split on Rolen’s worthiness for the Hall, but regardless, he is likely to make it at some point so his cards should get a boost off of that.
That one appears to be a lot nicer. Does the one I posted not appear to have a giant crease in the upper right corner?
Many, many bidders do not read descriptions. When I sell something that has a "surprise" in the description, I typically email the winner and make sure they read the description. I had a broken apple watch that I had to post three different times because the first two winners didn't read the description and obviously didn't understand what the words "parts only" in the title meant.

Looked like it, but the scan was so bad, I figured it didn't make much sense to look too hard.
