Default Have You Vetted Your Trimmer?

One would think that the goal of trimming is to improve the appearance of your card, fool the TPG and get a higher numerical grade.

and the description

SELLING EXACT CARD PICTURED. A DEALER LOOKED AT THIS CARD AND SAID IT HAS BEEN TRIMMED
AND THE EDGES ARE UNEVEN. I'M SELLING THIS CARD STRICTLY AS-IS
AND UNKNOWN SINCE IT'S NOT BEEN PROFESSIONALLY CERTIFIED/GRADED.
SEE THIRD PICTURE OUTLINING THE EDGES IF THIS CARD.

I seriously doubt that the trimmer in this case has an authentic diploma.

Disclaimer: This is not my card, nor do I know the seller in any way. I would also like to apologize in advance to Mr. Van Horn for outing an auction that he ordinarily would have.
