Based on personal experience--it's likely nothing more than a cat hair. I don't even let my cats in the office and they still manage to get their hair on the scan bed. That being said--you're dead on. Just wipe the thing down with a microfiber cloth before scanning. It takes half a second!

Pack fresh ! That card has been out o the pack longer then I've been alive .

At card shows when nothing is priced. I call that the I'll make up a price when asked about it sales approach.

Working on a trade and the other party feels that they deserve the more then you . Reasons the card they have is in great shape ,the paid 30bucks to sit a table , you want that card (and they want what you have ) . You want to trade two cards for that one card so they deserve a premium lol . I believe in fair and even trades .

And yes when you receive a card without a loader and it's stuck between two slivers of cardboard and blue tape .

I can live with any stupid description or lame sales pitch of a card, (comes from a smoke-free home, original owner, untouched for 20 years, etc.) but it's the sellers who use crappy photos instead of scans that drive me absolutely bonkers!

If you want to sell a card over the internet, especially an ungraded card, is it too much to ask that you scan the front and back of the card? My scanner cost less than my iphone! I press one button, it scans the front. I turn the card over, press the same button, it scans the back. The images go right to my computer just like a photo would. This does not require a high level of intelligence or technical knowledge.

Pleeeeease!!!! No more photos of cards from 20 feet away, in the dark, tilted at 30 degree angles. I can't take it anymore!!!!

$200? Sure! I'll take it!
