Agreed but I can't blame that on the eBay seller as he bought it in the holder from Heritage. The balls to increase the price in ten days by 75% while also photoshopping all the print defects out is pretty impressive. At some point a fraudster like this is going to sell to the wrong guy.

I've seen a ton of high grade E93s that looked trimmed to me. But I am sort of biased. I think all E cards that are too short and have way too neat corners are trimmed.

I can speak from the Cobb because it's mine. I thought the white spots were on the card as well, but when I got it in hand they are on the case. A simple cleaning of the case took them right off. Nothing shady going on here folks.

From Heritage: "The soiled surfaces announce the age of this over century old relic." I guess they just meant the case?

Heritage let a card of this grade and caliber go to auction with shmutz on the case, a simple cleaning of which could have meant tons of extra $$?? Seems odd. Maybe post a phone shot of the card? Not saying you have done anything, but it does seem odd. Just sayin - as a guy who watched this card closely in the Heritage auction.

And btw Pete, you and I have never done a deal, but you list real nice cards and I am pulling for an AH mess up

Well deserved, imo, for trying to continue a conspiracy theory and promoting a lynch mob mentality, now proven wrong, while questioning advertising decisions.
Anyone can question and say what they want to, it's all good. Please put your full name next to your posts per the rules. thanks
