It is a bit worse. They (at least used to) list prices for cards in NM condition as the base. Does anyone have a clue how hard it is to even get a NM card out of a pack? Fuck me if you follow full on grading where you measure the borders, check for proper horizontal and vertical alignment, print quality, sharp edges, and then wear on the card, scratches, and of course corners.

It makes it a pipe dream even for the collectors.
