Default Trimmed Card Question

Posted By: identify7

The value of these cards are identified by the bidding results. Josh was not way out in left field here; this was a hard fought battle among knowledgable competitors, imho.

There was no indication by the seller that these were pristine examples offered for sale. One card was described as vg/ex and the other as almost ex (which means vg/ex). If I was the seller who stated that some cutting variance was noted, and a buyer came back to me with expert opinion, such as can be offered by SGC, I would accept the card back for full refund. But if the buyer came back to me with less than expert testimony, I would adhere to the refund terms stated in my auction.

Of course the above represents only my opinion. I am a buyer of one of the iceking's Willard Chocolate cards, which was listed as vg/ex. I have no problem with any potential trimming (my card has notable creasing), and is probably a lesser grade. But it looks ok for my needs.
