The argument that a dealer can't/doesn't look at every card borders on complete and utter kaka because before a dealer purchases a collection of cards and money exchanges hands the '59 Mantle is going to have a lookie-look. Based on a scan alone Exhibitman stated "clearly trimmed, top left, not a particularly deft job of it."
I agree that if you wanted a 5, you should have purchased a graded card. Best case, would be the dealer issues a credit and you purchase a card of higher value. Preferably, graded.....

I am far from a dealer but have sold several cards on here over the last 10 or so years. Saying that I have clearly pointed out any alterations on every card I have sold on here or other places. I would hope everyone does but it isn't always the case.
