"Hourglass" Card - Trimmed?

Is this what is meant by an "hourglass" border on a card - top and bottom both have a significant slant to the cut. Is this a warning sign the card may have been trimmed or could it have just been originally cut that way? Either way seems to really be driving the price down, and one of those things once you see it you can never unsee it and it bothers my OCD brain!
