Wavy Gravy?

Does this Mays look OK to you? Right edge looks a little wavy to me. Maybe both. And short t/b?

  • I would continue looking. The right edge and top left border (appears to slant down as you get closer to the corner) do not look right.

    Yeah Mike, the right edge does look a little strange. Where Willie's white uniform sleeve ends ... from there going down a little bit ... it looks like the card is a little short. Now if this was a raw card I would say it was the scanner. However, I would think that since it's slabbed it's not the scanner.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Thanks guys. I was pretty excited about this card at first glance. Too bad.

    I am going to pass on bidding. I think it may go to $700+, so I'd rather be sure.

    I think they need to get a new scanner, the SLAB looks kinda wavy too. The card is probably fine.

    I'd have snapped up a nice 7 for $300 all day long.

    That buyer either got a steal @ $430 or got hosed big time. That Mays is tough to find clean - no smudge, no black line.

    I think the card was clean. The buyer got a nice deal.

    I thought it looked ok. Not a bad deal at that price. T/B centering keeps it out of an 8 holder, but overall a really nice card.
