I think a lot of the more inexperienced sellers do not understand the added significance "backs" have to pre-war collectors....If you think about it, most postwar cards for sale do not include a pic of the backs...
(BTW-- they should be able to add a 2nd picture for free if they just cut/paste from photobucket into the text...)

Even worse....some sellers don't even mention the back in the listing. My set is very "back conscious", so these listings a really annoying to me.

I don't think it's the cost - when you're scanning in 100 T206s, scanning backs of all of them, keeping straight which back goes with which front and uploading the correct f/b pairs takes a lot more time then just scanning fronts which have the identification in the scan itself. For cards that are worth $20 or $30 it might not be worth the time.

Now e-bay does not charge for additional scans, but at one time they did. As an e-bay seller of tobacco cards for 8 years, part of the reason is also because some of the backs do not look as nice as the front of the cards do. Therefore some sellers feel it's going to hurt the sale of the card.

Back scans
As a collector of 1933 WWG's it is very frustrating not to have a back scan, as the issue came with two different backs, one French/English and one English only. I suspect some sellers probably don't post a back scan out of ignorance as to there being back variations. I also agree with previous posters that lack of a back scan tends to make me suspicious as to the exact condition of the card.

It's not that hard with all the photo editing tools out there to add them to the same picture and still get a free image. I do it on all my vintage stuff
 Sure it take an extra 30 seconds per card but well worth it in the final sale price. Last edited by Ohio_Collectibles; 10-20-2010 at 05:49 PM.
