Horrible photos of cards 4 sale
 

It's happened to all of us. You're looking online for some cards when something so grotesque catches your eye you wanna hurl and curse but you can't take your eyes off of it. Yup ugly photos. Let's share and laugh/get angry together.

I'll start. Just found this beauty on the bay. I love it when they put the effort to put a card on one of those little stands. Too bad a pigeon took a sh*t on the top loader... c'mon man![IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181028/3ce1d03e38fec9f41696bfce4ba62a10.jpg[/IMG]

**double checks all eBay listings**

Maybe the seller chose this holder to amplify the glass idea.

Looks like glass on glass crime

Man. I feel so self conscious about the pics I post of my bad cards to Instagram that I am legitimately jealous of that seller. To just not give a single care about what the toploader looks like must be bliss.

That toploader looks like the one uncle that's been through some messed up stuff in life.

It really makes you wonder about the person behind the camera.

This guy was not giving up a new top loader under any circumstances.

Let's hope not, this thread could really go awry

Last year I got a Steve Nash Glass card like this. The card was well packed with bubble plastic paper in a panini iron box (timeless or classic?). But the magnetic holder (maybe from panini caz there's tape) cracked. Good thing is the card held well.

Checked this thread thinking one of my pics were in here. so happy they're not haha.

My favorite is when someone lays it on an unmade bed. Loooool.

Like you can see the wrinkles of the cream colored Wal-Mart sheets beneath the $2000 card.

Such an eye, these guys.

Come on, you can't afford a clean PENNY sleeve?!

If you are looking to repel customers I think this wounder has nailed the formula.

Looking to move a Jordan Power in the Key trapped in a screwdown for the bargain price of $8,000 USD. Seems like a steal?

We got blurriness, glare and a well... what can you say without being too harsh? I'll go with - an 'unappealing' hand. That's a triple whammy of bad photography right there.

Haha what a weird one. It also just creeps me out for some reason.

Its creepy because it appears this man is living with his grandma judging by that decor.

And the hand. The flabby, pasty, unfamiliar with clippers hand is sickening!

If he is caring for his sick granny and trying to make ends meet with that price tag, good luck to him but in any other scenario this is punishing.

Do I get the sconce on the wall for too for $8,000 or nah?

My pet peeve is when a pic includes a card in a toploader without a soft sleeve. You just know those corners are gonna get jacked up when they ship it.

Op first photo you should see the top loader he will mail the card in. That is his nice one for photos.

As for fingernail guy I like the Key to his Grandmas heart on the wall to the left.

My other favorite is there are about 3000 sellers on ebay with tan granite counter tops.

[QUOTE=Rob 23;14269471]There's a lot to unpack there.[/QUOTE]

This card is unique and brand new, kept in a card holder for anyone who wants it.

Found this gem on Worthpoint, so it was on eBay at one time. So much to discuss.

Why did Dad think this photo was a good idea to help sell his collection? You can't really make out the cards in junior's hands, plus the glare off the photo of Mom/big sis/Chef Padma in the background. I imagine this kid did the truffle shuffle after the photo shoot was over.
