Posted By: <b>Eric Everett</b><p>Now I know as a new member I'm pushing my luck by opening 2 threads in a day, but with that said let me assure everyone I understand board etiquite even if I'm not sure how to spell it. So on to the question...<br /><br />Are these seller's cards likely trimmed? <br /><br /><a href="http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZclutch1225QQhtZ-1" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZclutch1225QQhtZ-1</a" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZclutch1225QQhtZ-1</a</a>><br /><br />I didn't know where else to go without losing the certainty of accuracy.<br />Thanks again,<br /><br />-Eric Everett<br /><br />Edited to spell assure correctly. And I was worried about ettiquite....

Admittedly, that ebay auction didn't have this<br />privacy thing going on. With respect to these cards, I can't tell much<br />from the scans 'tho the corner perfection is a wee bit odd somehow. Perhaps<br />I'm just not used to such corners anymore. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />With regard to the spelling of etiquette, i notice that you spell it 2 different ways on the post--Barry Sloate may come calling soon.<br /><br />welcome aboard, Eric. your genuine gratitude for the help of this board<br />is kind and refreshing.<br /><br />barry
