Attention collectors: caramel card mess on ebay

[Archive]

This one just plain bites. Will Hays (sandygowill) had a number of cards on ebay last week, specifically some E94s and 98s, and carefully pointed out VERY CLEARLY that the cards were trimmed and to bid accordingly. I noticed a bidder named pgatourace running the bids way up and couldn't quite figure out why. Now, a little over a week later he has the exact same cards on ebay with high opening bids, big BINs and NOT ONE WORD about their being trimmed. The cards are described as being "exmt" and "ex+" etc. They are flat out trimmed and the seller knows it. Look at the top edge of the Mack E98 and the entire Jennings E98. The E94 McGraw is also short. The cards have a lot of eye appeal but it is just frigging wrong that he does not mention one word about the trimming or alteration even though he won the cards under those descriptions and knows they are altered.
I hope I am not stepping on someone who is a poster here, but regardless, shame on you!
COMPARE THE 2 DESCRIPTIONS
