Little o/t but indulge me...I just sold a T207 that was easily longer top to bottom then any other i had seen. I measured it(forgot what it was) but it was atleast 1/8 inch too long, if i remember right. These factory miscuts are much easier to find in sets like Crofts then they are in the sets that see major distribution like T206, or T207. It seems like almost every Crofts cocoa card i see has poor borders and measure differently. A lot of them only qualify for an "auth" grade which i think is unfair because they come out of the factory like that. SGC says that they can tell a card is trimmed even if it measures correctly and lines up right due to the nature of the cut. So whats the problem with cutting some slack on these cards that arent altered dont measure to spec. Maybe some sort of qualifier like PSA's MC but giving it an "auth" grade puts it in the same class as altered cards, and thats not fair.
