It's terrible that there are zero consequences to this. Trimming has become so prevalent within the hobby. It's important for us to remain vigilant when it comes to purchasing, especially high graded vintage cards. I don't run into this too often, as most of the things I purchase are lower in grade, but it has an effect on the market. The higher the grade, the higher the prices, and thus the same card in worse condition ends up going up in price. But as long as the companies keep slabbing, and ebay/auction houses, allow it to happen, nothing will be done.
