Terrible grading, and I'm 64, wear glasses and have no training.

I'm convinced that TPGs are a benefit to the hobby, if only to facilitate non-personal transactions, but this shows they can be their own worst enemy. I don't know squat about business (MBA dropout) but grading companies should have at least two people looking at all cards in my view -- an initial grader and his supervisor who should review for egregious errors. There is no way these cards should have left the building.

And, I'll put in a word for lawyers, especially those in federal service. In 30 years I found the vast majority to be bright, hard-working folks trying to do the right thing.

Lawyers, I don't particularly care for them, but they have saved my A$$ a couple of times.

Its bad enough to see one of those but two in 5 minutes of my searches, ouch. I also understand mistakes happen but those two cards shown fall under serious issues with quality control. They fall well beyond the grader missed something.....give me a break, a corner missing.
