Need Card Help Auth vs PSA 1

Chris-Counts · #1 03-28-2013, 09:05 AM

A nice-looking trimmed card often sells for far more than a beat up and untrimmed version of the same card. I don't mind trimmed cards at all, as long as they're priced accordingly. If they have nice eye appeal, I see them selling in G-VG price range, sometimes even more. Low-end T206 HOFers, for instance, routinely sell for $75-$100 trimmed if they look sharp, twice as much as you'd have to pay for a hammered version ...

give me the graded one every time. if its trimmed I won't touch it.

As you can see, there is no consensus. It is a matter of personal preference, and even that can change depending on the availability of the card.

I don't like trimmed cards at all, but I've seen great looking AUTH cards sell for more than Poor. Realize poor cards can be very beat up and rough.
