Yep. PSA is willy nilly random on this kind of thing. N6 supposedly means they don't think the card is trimmed, but yet it does not meet the size requirement. So they are acknowledging by that the cut is factory, but yet they still won't grade it. To me this is the epitome of third party grading bull$hit. Either a card is altered, or it's not. But yet for years they have insisted on this gray area as part of the process. I know many collectors who have submitted the same card multiple times. One time it may be N6, the next time it's trimmed / altered, and the time after that it gets a PSA 6. If you think these guys know more about vintage cards than you do if you've been collecting for decades, then you are being extremely generous. Just my 2 cents. #RantOver.
