robert aW555s are tough. What if a w555 has been cut with "extra borders?" Should it lose a grade or two? If they're going to grade cards cut from a box, there needs to be a specific policy in place at grading co's that is consistent and recognizes the dynamics of each issue.
With the toy town, I think it's similar to the "Nagy Collection" tag that sgc used. The toy town stamp is a hobby icon! Long live toy towns! The stamp adds a premium in many cases and shoudn't carry a MK qualifier. I guess SGC rationalizes their use of the toy town tag now that the stamp's included in the SCD.
By the way, if the toy town bandit did exist...what an amazing collection. I don't think it's one collector.
