48 bids so far on this OC Mays.
I would assume, if it didn't have the OC qualifier, this would be an 8? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1952-Topps-2...AAAOSw8vZXNefB

I'd prefer my cards not have any creases, of course, but some of the cards I want will be cost prohibitive without some very minor flaws. Such is life. If I'm going to have a crease, I prefer it not rear its ugly head in the picture's focal point. A little, nearly indiscernible crease in the lower left corner of a '54 Topps Hank Aaron is ok with me. That same crease in the middle of Hank's face...that would be a deal killer.

It depends on the crease. About ten years ago I sent in a 1972 Joe Namath In Action that I thought had a legitimate shot at a 9, and an outside shot at a 10. It came back a 5 because of some microcrease only visible under a loupe. To me, that's just too picky. If a crease is so small that I can't see it, but it allows me to buy a card for a whole lot less, I am all over it.
