Why in the world would you crack out an 8.5 and take the chance of.... I don't know - the card getting damaged during crack out, your daughters kid putting in some bike spokes, the card only comes back as authentic from PSA... you know the usual stuff.. wow

Greed.

borders look short did you ever notice the older the cards get the shorter the borders.

Because he didn't take that chance and his story is BS. That's my guess anyway.

I have always held that grading is a rigged game. I had a friend who sent in cards he had gotten from the pack in the 1960s (he was one of those kids who kept his cards neat and pristine, I don't understand that) and he got back a couple with "evidence of trimming." The rest of the grades were disappointing and considerably under what similar quality cards that had been sent in by a big guy would grade IMO. After his experience he said something I thought made a lot of sense...I'll never again send in a card I intend to keep for my collect. It just makes me feel worse about something I love.
