He should have at least made the price 420.69 to go full meme
Iâve been seeing a lot of 420.69 listings recently ![]()
vintage card with the 2022 copyright is new to me lol
More garbage ZardsâŠ
Pshh! That is DEFINITELY lightly played. ![]()
Its got a bid and no not from me lol.
Yikes⊠this reminds me of the âcyan corocoro mewâ that was left in the sun and listed as a misprint.
Light acetone rub, dâya think?
Trying to find a good copy of the Espeon VMAX Alt and came across one with good centering but in the pictures itâs sleeved and toploaded, and you can barely see the card due to the massive amounts of glare on the plastic.
Sorry for bothering you I guess? They also have neutral feedback with some bad shipping/packaging complaints, and the seller responses are all super snarky lol. I just more or less said âNever mind GLWSâ
not saying this seller is a good seller but in his defense, 99% of people asking for more pictures donât end up buying the item and thus just waste time. Iâm willing to guess that this card is priced competitive enough that if you dont buy it, someone else will sight unseen.
Absolutely.
I can count on one hand how many times someone asked for more photos and actually made a purchase. As a matter of fact, the only times I can even remember it happening were with fellow E4 members. But on eBay? People who ask for more photos end up being time-wasters pretty much every single time.
That being said, it is also terrible business for sellers to post one or two crappy photos and expect that to comprise a good representation of the item they are selling. It actually boggles my mind that sellers still take photos of cards in top loaders. That is just peak laziness.
Taking photos in top loaders is probably 50% laziness, and 50% people thinking âI need to show people I am protecting the cardâ and also putting in title âships in top loaderâ
This screams new and inexperienced ebay seller.
While that is absolutely true in many cases, you would be surprised how many legitimately experienced sellers engage in this practice.

Youâre not wrong â I experience this myself as a seller. But I take great photos. This is what was on the listing:
Iâm not expecting a 5d mk IV with studio lighting or anything. If anything I was just trying to gently explain to the seller heâd get more bites and fewer photo requests if it wasnât toploaded.
Raw cards I usually take 10-12 photos out of sleeve. Slabs youâre just getting front and back.
Front and back is absolutely fine for slabs. Iâm operating under the assumption that everyone here is just talking about raw cards.
This pains meâŠ
That market has spoken
