The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

  • yeah that's pretty annoying.. he goes on to say "mint condition no creses (sp) verry little coner wear and it has a small smudge mark on the top of the card.."

    haha.. god i hate people.

    in a bad mood so i went ahead and contacted him:

    hi.. was wondering if you are aware of the definition of the word "mint" because that card is definitely, asolutely, in no way even close to mint. thanks!

    i'll let you know what he says.image

  • i would worry more about my typo in "absolutely" if this guy was able to spell "very" or "corner"... image
  • At one point in time I would give my honest opinion on condition of all raw cards that I would sell on ebay. I quickly learned that this isn't a good idea if I provide payapl as a payment option. One buyer didn't agree with my opinion and filed a paypal chareback. Even though I did win the paypal case, the only way I will give my opinion now is if I'm not accepting paypal for that specific auction. Also, if I get am email from a potential bidder asking my opinion regarding condition of a card that I am selling, I'll reply" that since i'm not a professional graded and my opinion may differ than yours, you will have to look at the scan I provided and decide condition on your own".
