How can you tell when someone is purely about the money in the hobby?

Examples removed! When you are selling a 6 figure card and your picture focuses more on the leather sleeve than the actual card itself

great description as well

"This listing is for the card in the subject title. Don't miss out on this great collection piece!"

Eh. I think its called laziness.

Has nothing to do with being a collector or flipper/investor.

Most of his listings seem to only have one picture. Havent even bothered to read the descriptions but Im sure he didnt spend much time there either.

Agreed, all kinds of collectors out there, but it did make me have a nice mid-afternoon laugh - it immediately made me think of:

"Tell me you don't care about the card without telling me you don't care about the card."

That guy has been in the hobby for a minute. He’s based in the SF Bay Area. Pretty sure he’s a member on BO too.

Nice card - the GOATs in leather

I always thought if you're in it for a PSA 10 etc, you're in it for the money.
