Andy- I'm happy for you that you got your Burkett slabbed. But I think it's going to open a big can of worms. PSA, and others, will soon be bombarded by everyone who has a trimmed or altered card who wants to get theirs slabbed too. Wasn't the whole point of PSA to keep altered cards out of holders? Now they grade altered cards and state so on the label. In essence, no card can be turned down now. Soon you will see labels which read: "altered, trimmed, recolored, and a crease was spooned out of the corner, otherwise authentic." Just my opinion, but I think this is starting a bad precedent- your good fortune notwithstanding.
