[QUOTE="TK-7785, post: 523627, member: 8868"] I've always been of the opinion that you should describe and show, to the best of your ability, any and all details and then let the buyer decide if it has too many "flaws" or if they are can live with the condition of the item at that given price. However, in my experience one person's definition of 'mint' can be quite different to another's. Which is why I'm a firm believer in a picture tells a thousand words. One of the reasons I like buying and selling on here is that there seems to be a level of decorum and understanding that has meant largely we haven't needed draconian rules. That said, perhaps a couple of basic outlines for both the sellers and buyers wouldn't hurt. As a seller you should at the least list the obvious flaws, such as ink touch ups, bubble cracks, lifting, paint rubs, very loose limbs etc. That said, if you're the kind of buyer where items must be mintier than the Extra Strong Mint factory, then I feel there is some onus on you to double check, ask for extra pics and be sure of what you're buying to avoid disappointment.
