How some people on Ebay that have an off center card will take and angle picture to try and make it look as though they are a little more even than they really are. Also people who list there cards as PSA 8 or 9 only to find out they are 8 or 9 (OC). Let me know up front if it is OC.

    and how come the homeless always have the good shopping carts, and mine has the busted wheel?

    My favorite is the fuzzy, distant scan of seemingly thousands of dollars worth of vintage cards from say an antique dealer, and he might state his camera ain't working right - but on another one of his auctions he's got a clear, closeup, perfectly focused picture of a $5 vase.

    Actually, I just had a guy email me and ask what OC meant because he wanted to bid on the card I had for auction. So it's not that far off that the bad guys might get a bid or two by not listing it as OC. Very shifty though. My favorite listings are: "Baseball card collection"- thousands of cards too many players to list rookies superstars like sosa mcguire bonds jordan ripkin all the greats"- starting bid $500.

    Or any auctions run by this dork!
    Always highlights the main card in the title like Mantle, Clemente, and then you find out
    they're all graded by FGS. He has 2 of these $30,000 auctions running this week. He usually has
    1 running every week. They usually end at $300-$400. Wow, what a bargain.

    I can believe that he was able to get so many 10s? Ecspecially those T206s. What a joke.
