Default Thoughts on this? (Round 2)

http://www.ebay.com/itm/t206-christy...QAAOSw0RlZdUiq

I know sizes vary but this appears awfully short with minimal top white border I'd look for a larger bottom border and it appears very small also. How about paper loss on the left edge outline, could that paper loss have occurred after encapsulation.

Agreed, looks short. Plus, whoever buys that 6 is buying the flip and not the card

It was graded a long time ago. So it could have been a time when they was very generous with grades as their standards are constantly changing.

It looks way short to me.

In addition to the dimensions, there appear to be two spots of possible paper loss on the left border at chest level.

Wow! That looks, uh, bad. Older grade but recent holder. I would like to think when it was re-holdered someone would have raised an eye-brow. Guess not.

Yikes. A trimmed VG/EX card in a PSA 6 holder, fun, fun, fun

Why do you say it's an old grade, it is in the style that was the latest until the last month or two. Or was it reholdered?

Good to know there is no review in that process. Huge loophole for the Mexican dude, I suspect.

Cards can be reviewed during reholders but it doesn't seem in their best interest to lower grades as they'd have to write a check to make up the value. Assuming the guarantee applies.

Didn't someone here reholder a card recently and was told it had to be reviewed? Then again the PSA 9 49 B Robinson RC in the other thread is in a new holder with a huge print defect on his hat.

Might be due to the images he provided but that card appears to have all kinds of issues.

Looks like the same card sold in may at memory lane. I couldn't pull up the description on my phone but am curious to see what they said. Definitely a rough 6.
