Default Help with trout RC

Since these have a black border I知 sure there痴 a lot of condition issues with them but curious what kinda of condition this would be considered. I知 thinking about listing it but I know how returns can go. Help is greatly appreciated. I hope I captured the corners accurately.

I should have taken it to the card show I went to last week so people could look at it up close. But last week I was still on the fence about staying in the hobby

Always good to have priorities. You don't have to give up collecting, I've been on hiatus from EBay for over a decade. I've tried to go back to the roots of collecting by attempting trades. Try something different where it's more cost effective but doesn't take nearly as much time from your day.

Went outside to get natural lighting on that weird corner. I don稚 see anything odd outside, possibly the lighting in the basement?

You should probably improve your lighting

List it with some flaws on the corners and edges. Put that in the pictures and the description, but don't sell yourself short. Try listing it above the price you would take and accept offers. Take the first offer that is at or above your magic number.
