Default Strip cards

Posted By: jay behrens

strip cards are a bit of a paradox for the slabbers. They won't slab trimmed cards, but individual strip cards have to trimmed from the strip or sheet. If a strip card was originally cut large, there no reason why someone couldn't trim it to the correct size and then have it slabbed. There is no legit reason for the slabbers to kick it back. So individual strip cards are trimmed by definaition, yet they are graded by the slabbers.

I wouldn't be able to tell from a scan if a card wasrecently trimmed or not. Looking at the edges would be your best indicator.
