Hey tbob,

It wasn't me.. But I wish it was! Although it was probably trimmed, the Bottom Definitely, very wavy... These type's fit right into my set collector's appeal for putting this one together. I just love the solid cards that are mint looking... even if they are trimmed, etc...! Got a few beauties from Shammus a little ways back.

Okay, I'm wit ya, Fess uP whose Git it!!!

I was watching. Was probably not going to bid but thought it was real and was thinking that it has a trim job on the bottom. Great card despite that. I sent the buyer a note when I saw the auction had ended and here is the reply:

"I apologize. The owner wanted to send it off to get graded. You'll most likely see it on again soon."

Take that for what its worth. Maybe we will see it down the road.

So many have chimed in on the bottom border that there's probably a good chance it will come back "authentic" and will sell for less than if it had sold as a raw card.
I have always had a problem with the E90-1 set. I put one together card by card and bought six cards from one seller on ebay. All 6 came from the same original owner and were all exmt looking. 3 came back from SGC as 50s and 3 came back as "Authentic." The E90-1s aren't necessarily trimmed just because they don't have the giant borders (some do) as the sizes vary greatly with this set. Quality control on this set must have been horrendous with the sizes, angle cutting, etc.

I too had a snipe set and all ready to go. I think maybe the seller was scared off because there weren't any bids after a few days.

I too think it is trimmed and believe the seller also thinks so, which is why they put "Measures Just under 2 3/4 by 1 1/2 inches" in the description. However, I'd gladly take a trimmed copy for my collection, as I'm a low-grade collector on a budget.

Hope that it makes it back up and I look forward to competing with you all for the opportunity to own it.
