It honestly looks trimmed to me. The bottom edge looks nothing like the sides.

I knew a guy who was never wrong. I called him Dad. But he never mocked, or cursed, or acted superior to, or ridiculed, anyone who disagreed with him.

Does this mean the spring thaw has come at last, and all things made of snow have finally melted away for good??

Keys to being an effective arguer.
1. Know what you're taking about.
2. Make your points clearly and consistently.
3. Don't insult someone who disagrees with you no matter how unfounded their disagreement is, always be respectful. Explain, respectfully, why they're wrong.
4. Acknowledge when someone has raised a reasonable difference of opinion, and above all else, admit when someone makes a valid counterpoint.

This thread is just like all the rest he participates in when members have the interest to address his inconsistencies, fabrications, outlandish statements, etc etc. He gets nasty, dodges most of the rebuttals and then he vanishes, only to come back again and start again.

I now am curious what blowout's grounds were for his being banned. I am not calling for his being banned from here. I actually think he has a great deal to offer but he is never wrong. Very thin skinned and unable to be humble. If I am wrong, I want someone telling me so I can learn. Travis thinks he has all the answers to everything and he simply ends up making a fool of himself.

If undeniably and completely lying about people and fraud isn't enough to get one banned, I would think basically nothing short of violence is bannable lol

I wonder if PSA will alter (pun intended) their guarantee. They may try to proactively absolve themselves from blame in advance. There is a very real possibility of issues appearing (down the road) with graded cards that have been cleaned with KCC products.

Oh, but it's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO effing legit, isn't it\?

We are fine with blowing on it or using a dab or water or using microfiber to clean it," said Ryan Hoge, president of Collectors, parent company of PSA. "But when you are doing much more, we are not on board."

I know this might be a bit snowmanish of me but doesn't PSA have to make this statement? It is also actually hilarious after they were shown how inept or complicit they were in grading so many severely altered cards on Blowout and remained silent the entire time.

I think Kurt might be a con artist on top of being a card doctor. It is my opinion he is not only fixing up cards and "violating" PSA's submission terms, (which based on Hoge's statement 99% of the people in the hobby are violating submission terms by soaking cards in water) but also deceiving all the people who buy his kits thinking creases and wrinkles will just go away on their own by using the spray.
