Default You be the judge

Posted By: Judge Dred

I'll be honest with you, I believe the left card was overgraded, it looks more like a "3" to me. I'll give the right card a "4" (a "5" on a good day). Yes there is chipping along the border and yes the top right corner is a little dinged but the overall appearance (to me) is much more appealing. This is one reason that I would have a hard time buying a card sight unseen "just" because it was graded by a "reputable" grading monkey (I hope I didn't insult any monkeys by that last comment).

There was mention of the right card being trimmed. I thought about this also but "how could that possibly happen" when a reputable grading service determined it was a "4".

To those that participated, Thank You and without further adieu,
