John - that's how I remember it as well. It really sounds from the comments in this thread, that a lot of collectors no longer mind trimmed cards. They were just plain taboo.
atx840 - good example. That illustrates very well the situation we're in if we are collecting expensive cards, but on a budget. I also like all the subtle differences in the Matty white caps - mine is actually a hack job of a nice one as well, and also a 649 OP.
