T206Collector1) Chet Woods is one of the best dealers in the hobby. There are several threads about him on this board -- all of them glowing. Because of his high status in the hobby, when you start a thread like this, the presumption is that you're the one making the mistake.
2) The presumption is accurate here. When you buy a card graded by any of the Big 3 (PSA/SGC/GAI), you are purchasing a guarantee from them (not the seller) that the card has not been trimmed. Take your concerns up with the grader. And please keep in mind if a pre-ward card measures short that does not mean that the card is trimmed. I could show you a dozen examples of untrimmed short T206 cards in my collection that have been certified by both PSA and SGC as untrimmed and authentic.
