Default T206 Green Cobb on eBay Help

I'm in the market to purchase a green cobb, not necessarily this one, but wondered about the bottom left corner of this card. Almost looks like some paper loss.

Wondering what T206 experts think as far as the grade (overgraded/undergraded/just right) and overall eye appeal of the card. Also, looks like there's a slight tilt though it might be the angle of the picture.

Looks like an older flip and font. No visible frosting around the seals. Anybody have any concerns about the holder or seller?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here's the link:

I don't claim to be an expert on T206's but that just looks like common wear.

It's not like the seller is trying to hide it, he puts one picture just for it.

Have you tried sending the seller a message to ask them? They might be able to help with particulars as they have the card in hand.

For a card like that they certainly should have scans And not just photographs. I don't know if it's the angle But the two bottom borders look wider and then they seem to get narrower going vertically up the card on both sides. i can't tell if there is any paper loss On the back. Otherwise it looks like a typical PSA five...its a nice card!

hard to make out that bottom left border, i would ask for a better scan if possible. otherwise card/flip is fine. i'd much rather buy an older psa flip than the new ones.

Hi! I replied on the memorabilia side. I know this seller. Impeccable gentleman. As honest as they come. Just a collector not a dealer. Haven't seen him in about 10years.....but the guy has a great eye for condition. All his cards are 100%. Dave.

Yeah, that's a common question I ask myself, as to why they do that. Laziness? Time saver? If a seller has a lot of cards to get online it's faster just to shoot them and get them in the computer and edit if necessary, as opposed to having to scan each one first. They should Separate the lesser sexy cards from the Cobbs and such.
