Default Subbed by REA!
Description states it was subbed by REA!? The diamond cut notwithstanding - that top right corner looks wrong!

The card is not trimmed, not one bit. It’s Factory Diamond Cut Both Edges have the same cut just one side, left is wider then right border.

If you are talking about the Mantle, I dont think the problem is with the diamond cut - at least to my eye, there appears to be an additional cut at an inward angle near the top of the righthand border and then a slight bat ear back out.

To me both sides left and right appear to have the same angled cut, with wider left and narrowed right...

He also stated it really well. I see the diamond cut. That's not what the problem is. It is that top right corner as Josh described.

I agree. If I'm buying a PSA 7 '51 Mantle, it's not this one.

I do not think that top right corner has been worked on, to me it’s natural.

The person who bought the card is happy with it. He read the description and paid a lot of money for it, let him enjoy the card.

He should enjoy it. There aren't that many PSA 7 Mantle rookies out there.
