Greg Morris - Trimmed Card? Proper Response?

[Yoda]

While I believe GM offers a great opportunity to those collecting raw cards or buying raw cards to be graded (think dollars) and I have bought from them multiple times, they do miss the grading mark from time to time.

Many might remember last year when I purchased a '49 Bowman Spahn GM graded exmt but was rejected by Ebay, under their authentication program, as not being fit for such a grade. Ebay was correct and I was refunded the purchase price.

I'm definitely sympathetic to a seller moving a significant bulk of cards every month like GM. I am sure there is no shortage of emails coming in the door that something is suspected by someone of being trimmed or worse. If you are selling raw cards I think its buyer beware, and if you don't like the look of something steer clear. I don't think a seller needs to engage with the buying community en masse everytime someone raises an issue about something. Many times even on this board, with people as knowlgeable as they are, there is substantial good faith disageement as to what is trimmed, authentic, etc.

I have also noticed a number of his raw t206 listings that are clearly trimmed but do not indicate it. I take it as a good sign when sellers are upfront about that, as many here do on the bst when selling trimmed cards.

Yes, I remember that. That was a hoot.

You were cussing out ebay, all the TPGs and GM besides, and then as it turned out, funds had been refunded and were sitting in your bank account.

Al, too true, and I felt like such a jerk after all my bellowing.

It's happened to us all, some more than once.
