    I wonder how bad the backs look. He didn't even show 1 photo of them.

    Scroll down the auction page and you will see that all the cards exhibit major paper loss.

    What are you talking about...the seller states that they are "PACK FRESH!" How could they have paper loss? Oh...wait....

    I only looked at the pictures at the top.

    Nice fronts, some of the best I've seen. Too bad the backs make them grade "Authentic", I doubt any will grade a 1.

    ll cards have been removed from a scrapbook, with paper loss and paper addition on the cards reverse. Without respect to the back damage, the fronts of the cards appear Pack Fresh and grade as follows:

    Does a fresh Maaco with original dings and dent count?

    Yes, but that doesn't excuse the purposely misleading auction title ("Pack Fresh EXMT+"). I don't see any cards that are close to EXMT+ in his description, nor are they pack fresh.

    +1, I wouldn't ever consider cards that wouldn't grade either pack fresh or EX/MT
    From what I can tell, 707 is the DOLLAR STORE compared to deans_cards. For what that guy charges, if I ever bought anything from him I would expect it to be delivered to me in a frickin' limo.

    What a shame! Those cards are so nice on the front. What does everyone think they are worth as is? I suspect much, much lower.
