Success with resubmission of "trimmed" cards?

[ullmandds]

tough one...diamond cut looks even...top left corner def a little sharp...bottom rt edge looks wavy but I presume thats because it's a poor photo.

a scan would help.

Thanks. I'll try to scan it tomorrow and see if that helps.

Peter,

I agree, on both points.

The diamond cut is "equal and opposite," as it should be. Overall, though, it seems a bit short, from top to bottom...ever so slightly. Perhaps it was trimmed along two sides?

And yes, a scan would be quite helpful.

Best regards,

Eric

I think the right edge is wavy. Could just be the photo. When something looks wavy, I just put another card on the table and use the black border line as a guide and see if the card in question has a completely straight edge.

To me it looks like both sides are slightly trimmed and not a true diamond cut. I don't think any TPG would give it a numerical grade as a result. Just my opinion of course.

I have no comment on the card in question. But to the first question of cards being returned E of T and subsequently getting a number grade, I have had both SGC and PSA return cards as E of T and subsequently assign a number grade on a resubmission. I have also cracked out cards from both graders that were definately trimmed that subsequently would not cross or would not regrade.

The graders are not perfect.

I can't recall seeing a diamond cut that occurred on the left/right sides; only top/bottom. I'd say trimmed as well.

Trimmed in my opinion but you should have a much clearer view. Don't let your hopes cloud your view.

I sent a 51' Bowman Mays to SGC and it came back as being trimmed. I then sent it to PSA and they gave it a 4. Card matched up size wise to others and even had 4 relatively rounded corners. Not sure what SGC saw.

+1 ...and my opinion as well.
