Honest ebay description

Since there have been so many complaints about sellers using misleading ebay listings, I thought I'd show that there are a few honest guys out there.

    Looking at the card again, it's interesting that the TR and BL corners aren't *that* bad. The BR corner is...well...digested as Cornholio suggests and there's a chuck out of the top border. Just how does that happen?

    Sorry to pimp my auctions, but one of my cards won't sell - relisted for 75, 67, 60, and now under 50% of SMR. People keep watching it, and this time I let them know I'd eat the card before lowering the price. I hope it sells

    You can't throw something like that away. It is authentic and undoctored (by humans, not by rats), so of course someone can use it as a filler. I certainly would.

    This is further proof that the "smell test" described in an earlier posting is NOT the way to authenticate a card. Astute collectors know that the TASTE test is the only true way to prove it's authentic.

    I've got a lovebird who did something quite similar to one of my submission forms. I ended up having to make a photocopy of what was left and fill in the missing text by hand.

    So this card would get a PSA 1 with a some type of qualifier?
