Hi all, I've been lurking here for quite awhile gaining knowledge of prewar cards and have enjoyed the expertise/drama/humour here. I decided to bid on my first T-206 and just won the card, which was ungraded and also didn't have the best pictures. The Ebayer is fairly new with a negative so with all that added up one might ask why the heck I bid on the card.

Well the card didn't have T-206 in the title so I thought it might be invisible to the eyes of some. It also looked to have great color and centering. So...the obvious question is how'd I do? I researched the seller's feedback and the reason for the negative in question was eventually worked out.
Thanks for the opportunity and the new passion for prewar cards! Those shiny ones just don't seem to do it for me like they used to...
