Brings to mind a pet peeve of mine is sellers who will post an image with multiple items in it, and in their description state something like "auction is only for the item in the title." As a longtime seller who continues to be amazed how many buyers browse and purchase solely based on the main image, without regard to details clearly stated in the description or even the title, I cannot possibly see how the amount of time it saves to not create individual photos for each listing outweighs the headache that must come from dealing with buyers who assume they are bidding on everything in the photo.

As for tape, some sellers need to learn that 'blue tape' is not the same as tape that happens to be blue. Speaking of top loaders, if you ship in them SEAL THE F****NG TOP! I bought a $70 card last week that came in a ton of packing but the seller did not secure the top of the top loader. The card was out half an inch and there was a big ding on one corner. Back it went...

If shipping a card in a top loader with First Class/Tracked shipping or any pricier method, first put it a penny sleeve with the bottom of the sleeve facing the opening of the top loader prior to taping it. Then place a piece of sturdy cardboard on either side and tape the borders of the cardboard on all sides. This is not the Manhattan Project.

In addition to "L@@K", "Read", and "Rare", I saw a new one today - "PSA 3 Authentic". It was ofcourse not even graded.

I dislike the people selling very obvious fakes for a few dollars and saying they don't know if they are real or not. They know.... .

Yep, this! So many sellers with fake cards on there trying to fool unsuspecting buyers. They definitely know.

How about the habitual 'PSA 9 in the title, but it's actually a PSA 8 card' guy? He ropes you in with the 'very-low-price-for-a-9' listing, and after you examine the card and see how nice it is (and wonder why it's so cheap), only then do you see it has an 8, not a 9, on the label. Argh!!!!
