Has this T206 Cobb Green been trimmed?

Makes no sense that the seller hasn't had the card graded before listing it. On the other hand, he's got great feedback.<br><br>Anyone with sharp eyes have opinions?<br><br>Thanks!

Posted By: <b>quan</b><p>wouldn't this question be better ask to the seller? he did give an unconditional guarantee...<br><br>my opinion is there's some concern he knows of grading but didn't get the card graded. card looks fine and about VG from at least one wrinkle that i could see. ultimately because of the nice appeal card will go for a premium and not worth the gamble...you could probably find a nice 3/40 in holder for about the same price as what this card end at...and don't have to sweat how the raw card will be ship/if there's any more crease/wrinkle not seen/sending it in for grading/if there's anything wrong will the seller who hasn't sold anything for 1.5 years do the right thing etc etc...<br><br>on the bright side if you can spoon out the wrinkle it's a 4 or possible 5 and you would've bought it for a VG price...which i'm sure that's the angle some people are thinking.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>what Quan said....Not sure about the &quot;spooning&quot; but I guess some folks do it....I know I have an E92 Dockman Young that someone tried it on...you can see the shiny part of the wrinkle. Idiots...
