Yes Josh, I read too fast, and spoke too soon. You are right, those scans were not the lot in question.

And Warshawlaw & Jay: if we didn't live through it, that would be very confusing to follow. Heck, having lived thru it, it is still confusing. Complicated further by the inability to consistently identify a (too) high percentage of trimmed cards. Which results in the less than worst, most obvious examples of trimmed cards being resubmitted until the trim job is overlooked.

So what do you wind up with?

Ive had SandiegoWill and other experienced trustworthy people tell me he honestly didn't know whether a vintage card was trimmed. How many cards do you have to inspect until your experience exceeds theirs?

I accept that some trimmed cards are not easily IDed. And I contend that if you can not prove a fault, none exists.
