“ Is this the right place for this card? It's a refractor but shows in the base set. Bad-looking card either way. Hokey signature is hard to see. And is a big body really a skill? ” -switzr1

“ The back for this scan is for the refractor. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Oops - refractor scan in the base set. ” -vrooomed

Some members scan in the same back for multiple sets, thinking they are the same. If you don't have the correct card, don't think you are doing a favor by scanning backs en masse.

the only instances where I think that would be acceptable would be blank backs, or card games which, due to their nature, require the backs to be identical. I never guess with parallels, just in case there is a difference that I don't know about.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

If you have enough of the parallels to know for sure that they are all the same, I see no problem with posting them. For instance, 2015 Press Pass- there are two base versions (Hobby and retail) and 6 levels of parallels- all share the same back. But when they are different- like this- then it should NOT be posted.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.
