Pencil erased and no Qualifier?
I was thinking about 52 Bowmans earlier and wanted to see how the market was on ebay and came across this. I am confused as I thought that a card that was written on and then erased was considered altered, and thus ungradeable.

Good for you.

That's an interesting question. If you erase something and they perceive it, as such, is the card altered or just scuffed and downgraded?
Sounds like a question for the policy guys. I think it would get an MK.

5 seems about right for the card. Very strange though this comment with no MK qualifier. An erased pencil mark gets the MK qualifier. Perhaps this seller just took a very quick look at the card and commented on it - maybe it's really a faint print line, not an erased pencil line? Again...very strange.
seller also has this card up too.
A while back I mentioned that centering is about the only quality one could make from a scan. i guess this scan/card proves that out.
as for the mays it looks more like a vg/ex card to me so an ex grade is not out of the question. my concern was the seller claiming it had a pencil line drawn on it and it had been erased.
