How true. Besides the highly volatile subjectivity that goes into grading, the reality that many doctored cards get graded and sell for mucho dinero should terrify any sane person. In fact one Hall of Fame registery member once openly admitted that if he gets a card reject for evidence of trimming, he'll resubmit up to four times until it gets a grade.
