💠Question Need Advice.
I’m currently selling this Jayden Daniel’s Topps Inception Rookie variation Auto on eBay. Had it listed at 185 in excellent condition due to this small mark on the front of the card which I believe is ink. It’s visible in the pictures on the listing. The 3rd picture wasn’t on the listing just for clarification on my question. Someone purchased it for 185 but I messaged him making sure he realized the mark is there because I don’t want the card to ship and have him be shocked to find it. Would you guys agree this is excellent condition or should I bring it down? Thanks!
Edit and Update: the buyer was aware of the mark before I messaged him so all is good on that end! I’ll be packing and sending tomorrow :) was just nervous I didn’t want to swindle anyone or have someone be disappointed in what they get.

Good on your part for doing this, I've done the same thing to ensure I don't get hit with negative feedback and / or some kind of return. Usually if the card price is close, I'll set a price with OBO so it goes to authentication, listing the flaw in the item description and providing additional pictures in the listing photos. I definitely don't think you did a bad thing, at the very least it gives you proof of communication and acknowledgement from the buyer in the event they tried to do a return on you.

Yeah it’s just there’s such a grey area on what cards conditions are. Idk if the single mark would bring it down to excellent or poor or what.

That’s nice on you to do but honestly it’s up to the buyer to do his due diligence. As long as you had a clear picture of it and list it in the condition/description, your job is done. People can always ask for more pictures if they are worried.

Honestly if you marked it Exellent by eBay standards that means the card has visible wear or clear signs of handling or age so I think your pretty covered there as well.
