I'll chime in with my experiences since I have probably dealt with him as much as any other seller over the past 10 years. With the single listings, I think you still get what you see for the most part - no photo-shopping. In his lot listings, he used to be pretty reliable with regard to accurate, conservative grading, and pretty timely with delivery. But I have seen those standards slip appreciably over the past four years or so, and especially over the last year. It has gotten to the point where I just don't buy any lots from him any more because I know he will exaggerate the condition. For example, the last NM+ lot he sold me was full of dinged and creased up cards. On the plus side, I have never had an issue with getting a timely refund from him.
