During my early 52 collecting days, I purchased quite a few great looking cards, which I assumed were under graded but once in hand, and once turning/flipping/angling the cards in the light it was easy to see indents and the like.
Being somewhat disappointed thinking I was getting an under graded card, I quickly learned to trust the opinion of the seller I was getting the majority of my cards from.
