This is my most annoying thing in the hobby....this just means that it (lot, single, etc) is really in VG shape, likely due to some creasing. I have lost count on the number of "EX" lots that arrived with creased up cards. Half the regular pre-70 vintage lot sellers on ebay routinely offer their EX +/- cards, which through experience means VG.
My other favorite is: "overall an EX lot, I saw no creasing, but I may have missed a few"....this just means that at least half the lot has some sort of creasing and overall the lot is in Vg to VG-EX shape. "Just a few less than EX" actual quote from the listing of a 150 card lot that arrived Saturday...this is indeed translated to it's actual meaning of "half the cards are VG due to creasing and the other half are actually in EX shape." EX cards are supposed to be CREASE-FREE! There is NO subjectivity in creasing, a card either has a crease OR it does. If it does have a crease, it is not supposed to be in EX shape. |

For some reason this is very frequent: If you have multiple T206 cards you have "T206s" not "T206's".

People who submitted on the October Group Sub have no idea what POPPAGE is either.
