    My favorite is "well loved"...

    These aren't necessarily phrases to cover up a damaged card but I am really tired of seeing "pack fresh" and "card went straight from the pack to a top loader". Those descriptions are way over used and often times it is used to describe a modern card that is NM to NM-MT but the obvious implication is that it is either Mint or Gem Mint.

    I hate that saying. Not only on Ebay, but in person.

    Pack Fresh. image I see that all the time and it's pretty funny.

    I am quite fond of corner tappings, vertical tappings, horizontal tappings...really any kind of tappings.

    Day is done ...
    Gone the sun ...
    From the lakes ...
    From the hills ...
    From the sky ...
    All is well ...
    Safely rest ...
    God is nigh...

    Fading light ...
    Dims the sight ...
    And a star ...
    Gems the sky...
    Gleaming bright ...
    From afar...
    Drawing nigh ...
    Falls the night ..

    Thanks and praise ...
    For our days ...
    Neath the sun ...
    Neath the stars ...
    Neath the sky ...
    As we go ...
    This we know ...
    God is nigh ...

    How about that the card was "enjoyed"?
