In my opinion, the choice for the sample card is not indicative of what the majority of the cards look like in the set. I believe there are guidelines on what kind of card should be selected and this one does not meet those guidelines. Should it be changed?

Agreed. Only cards with the base design should be chosen. Subset, title, cover, checklist, nor logo cards should be used. ------------------------------- *Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.*

So does it take an IR to have it changed? I beleive only Admin can do that. ------------------------------- Bruno -------- Check my Profile page to see my 2023 Goals and my Lists of sets near completion (5 cards or less) or sets getting close (less than 100 cards missing and 75% complete). https://www.tcdb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/B/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=25745&C=0

IR - Some sets we can select "Remove Sample Image" from the Tools list, some cannot, and those we send to Admin. ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024). I have added a large portion of my inventory to the site, and currently have trading turned on (details are in my profile).

I agree. Better to have no-name that is representative of the base set rather than an oddball card just because it is a "superstar".
