I don't know - that's why I asked. I ha only ever dealt with them in person prior to this mailed submission and I am not ever going to be able to give them a ton of business.

By the way, does the flaw stand out to others?

I didn't think trimmed as it seems to measure correctly.l but another member thought it looked short...

Like I mentioned, you chose them, paid them, so it's the least they can do, imo.

Sorry, I can't offer any opinions on your card. If not trimmed, it could have been recolored, or something else. Definitely call and inquire and please let us know what they tell you, even if they tell you nothing. (which I highly doubt)

I will call Monday and report back.

While it is not their fault for moving, drop off and pick up was much better for my purposes - not to mention no shipping.

Was it thinner than normal cards due to being pressed inside a screwdown brick for 20 years? That would be another possibility: altered stock.

Outside of visible damage (creases, scuffs, scratches, dings, soft corners) I have a hard time identifying the issues cards face if they're done well.

My guess was the crease had some color added to dull it. Pressed and trimmed are also possible. I'll know tomorrow. Doesn't bother me too much. Whatever work was done was pretty goo and I am a buy the card not the holder type on the mid to low end. Resale value rarely factors in. It's a nice looking and that I would have thought a 3 or 4 at best. And now it matches my set. 😃
