Guess it slipped by SGC too. Two shitty graders missed it, but you didn't. Grats for catching it. Keep up the good work.

Nope, just responding to criticism that I disagree with. That's OK with you isn't it?

Well this escalated quickly. It's a really nice looking card, but does seem to be short. I'm no pro, but who knows, maybe it was cut short?

Between my own careful look at it and SGC I'm 100% certain that it's not trimmed. And it is narrow, about as wide as a typical American Beauty.

To call the card listed on Ebay trimmed with only a passable scan to go by is ridiculous.

I do enjoy when I receive an eBay message about a graded card I'm selling: "That card looks a little short." With all respect, hey asshole -- don't bid on it. What am I supposed to do? Demand that PSA regrade the card because some anonymous ebayer thinks it's short?

What this thread needs is a good Stevie Wonder joke and I've got one.

I personally don't know Dan or have ever talked with him, but I always appreciated and respected his insight on this forum, very knowledgable.

I don't know anything about T206's to make an assumption in regards to being trimmed or not.

Great Thread! I agree with Jeff:

Dan stinks and I hate him!

Just for the record yes, most of my ebay store items are very high. Actually you may see them with lower price tags at my table at shows. With ebay and paypal fees and I get beaten to death on prices no matter where I set them, this seems to work out ok in the long run.

If you look at what sells, you will see I negotiate and sell a decent volume.

And no, I don't have a large tolerance for non-collectors that low-ball me and get smart a$$ with me but that has always been me.

I am harsh sometimes and rough around the edges but that was helpful during 20 years and 2months of Military service.

Cheers
Dan Mckee

Dan is good...card is fine...

Think of it this way...you are in the market and deciding on a steak. You see one that looks a little "grayer" than the rest. You walk up to the butcher and say "This steak is bad!" The butcher says that cut of meat often turns color quickly and he just put it out that morning. What do you do? Do you then call the butcher blind, Stevie Wonder, liar, hypocrite? To his face? I doubt it. You would put the steak back and pick another one. If you did not...I would presume the butcher (and others) would certainly ask you to leave (at best) or they would throw you out (at worst).

People find courage behind the monitor and keyboard they probably would not have in reality.
