Posted By: <b>brian p</b><p>Another ridiculous example of "grading" by a grading company--I don't care which company has flubbed, these unbelievable examples need to be pointed out.<BR><BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2776943699&category=31718" target=_new>http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2776943699&category=31718</a><BR><BR>Anyone remotely familiar with this issue would realize that this card is missing more than half of its borders on each side. The E220 set is notorious for its horrible factory cuts, and there are so many trimmed cards out there like this one I have always believed that they were perhaps issued in strip form as well, but for a grading company to call this near mint is just sad. I guess I should send in my dozen E220's that have borders just like this card while the going is so good and easy.<BR><BR>Brian
