Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>The top looks just as bad, especially when you look at the back scan. It almost looks like it was an oversized card that got trimmed down. Neither the top or bottom looks very straight.<br /><br />Jay<br><br>Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming --- WOW, What a ride!

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p> I have to disagree, I think the card is fine. I have lot's of strange T206 cuts that aren't trimmed.... Here's onehttp://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1107032532.JPG <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1107032532.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1107032846.JPG"> <br /><br /><br /> Make that 2....

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>I agree that it looks good. If the top border is oversized, you must assume the bottom border is going to be a bit shorter.

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>It probably is good, but I wonder sometimes if diamond cuts don't look a little more suspect when they are in a slab. The top cut doesn't appear to be straight at all when viewed from the back. It almost looked curved.<br /><br />Jay<br><br>Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming --- WOW, What a ride!

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>I agree with Jay. It's not the size of the borders that bothers me; it is the rounded bottom border that does not lie flat against the holder which is the concern.
