I went with something else, although a couple other answers might work too.
My example is a really nice looking T206 Common. I sent it in to sgc years ago, and was sort of rushing to find likely looking ones to make the card count for a special.
Trimmed all 4 sides. And it's obvious when giving it more than a cursory glance.
Kept it, mostly because I'm usually a buy and hold sort of collector.
No reluctance, and not really looking for a replacement, but if a good deal on a replacement comes along maybe? I keep the rejection slips with the very few I've had rejected, when I move it along it will be with disclosure, and I'll probably end up with profit depending on exactly when I bought it, which I don't remember. If it's the kids selling it, hopefully they'll disclose the trim.
I have at least one other, a Delong in an Acucard slab. Says it's a 7, but it's trimmed. I keep it mostly because it's in an old odd slab, plus it looks pretty good.
