Very possible but my point is they don't want to know or care to know. It's in a holder end of the discussion for the investor it's good to go.

That's not true, either. Anyone that is concerned about future value wants to know their card is legit. No "investor" wants to be sitting on a fake.

The buyers of the most famous investment card in the hobby seem to disagree. PSA 8 it might be, but it's been well known pretty much from the start that it ain't unaltered.

Are you just trolling? If you really think the buyer knew (or suspected) the Dimaggio was trimmed, let's hear it.

Are you just not reading? People are saying investors don't care if a card is trimmed, not that the buyer of this card knows for a fact it is trimmed.

I understand it is easier to argue against this claim you made up instead, but nobody said it. Try harder.

That's ridiculous. The strip that was removed from the left could be used as a shoelace...or belt.

The problem is if the card meets minimum size requirements, I don't see how SGC could conclude it was altered.

They have a 'real' 8.5 slab.
