Frank Thomas Mint White Sox Rookie Error 1990 Topps Nnof RC SP Card 414 2010 | eBay

I see this crap and I always wonder what the seller is thinking. Do you think he's "oh so happy" that he's fooling some dope into wasting their money or time, or do you think he feels like the giant turd he is?

That guy had a PC Card of mine and he was asking $400 for a constant $120 card. When I best offered a generous $110 he countered with he countered with $300 saying lowest.

Although the seller is being mildly deceptive, it does clearly say in the title and description that it is a 2010 card.
Too many buyers are either illiterate or just skim over titles and descriptions.

He does it on purpose. Mildly deceptive is still deceptive. He lists TONS of these types of listings. Puts the real year at the very end of the title, no back scans, etc... Always fishing for the uninformed or flash bidders.

He put the 2010 year at the front of the card's description.
It's clear as day that it's a 2010 card if you read the description.
Who bids based on a title without reading the description?

Regardless, the seller's title is deceptive at first glance, and I'm certainly not defending the guy, as I hate wasting time clicking on auctions that aren't clear.

Took me less than 3 seconds to find out the card was a 2010 insert...I have no sympathy for the bidders. It's in huge capital black letters. With that being said, it's most likely shilled anyway considering the seller.

Shouldn't someone buying a 1990 NNOF realize a real one is missing part of the black border?

Shouldn't someone buying a 1990 NNOF realize a real one is missing the topps logo?

On that note, isn't it odd that most print defects are regarded as worthless, yet this one brings thousands?
