Question to sellers

How many of you sellers do not use the term OC when you are sellling a card that is OC in your Ebay main title. I know sellers want to get more hits on there items, but as a buyer it is a waste of my time everytime I click a link on what I think might be a PSA 8 or 9 only to find out it is OC.

    PSA puts the qualifiers on the flips for a reason and for that reason I list the Q in the item title when I sell a card with a qualifier. Like yourself I don't appreciate opening an auction item then finding it has a qualifier which wasn't noted in the item title. Verges on deception which I do not look for in a seller.

    Even worse is when it isnt even in the description, and you can barely make it out on the pic of the holder....

    I am like psahockey, I put a q in the title line...this probably gets more attention as people want to see what "q" it is, some people would never buy OC but may be able to live with an MK, ect.

    ALWAY ALWAYS ALWAY put a q in the title, it is dishonest and caniving not to do so. I always put an exclaimation like it is a good thing. 1957 mantle psa 5 MC! One LOSER was saying his was a 1 of 3 'cause only 3 were givin that low grade with a qualifier... dummy.

    Dude, I like the use of "WOW" for your description of the 82 Barfield rookie card.

    I agree, but it's not as bad as putting "PSA" in the title to explain that the seller thinks that PSA may grade it at some point in the future.

    It's dishonest and low class not to describe the card accurately in the title. You can't fool anyone when they see the scan.

    You can still spruce up the title describing the eye appeal or other good features. Some cards are barely OC. Some look great on the front but have back problems.

    Or the old PSA 8? so when I do a PSA 8 search it will come up.
