I have always held that grading is a rigged game. I had a friend who sent in cards he had gotten from the pack in the 1960s (he was one of those kids who kept his cards neat and pristine, I don't understand that) and he got back a couple with "evidence of trimming." The rest of the grades were disappointing and considerably under what similar quality cards that had been sent in by a big guy would grade IMO. After his experience he said something I thought made a lot of sense...I'll never again send in a card I intend to keep for my collect. It just makes me feel worse about something I love.
