Julieauctioneer's words!" But you gotta know the card you're bidding on. As I remember, Lew has nice big scans of each item in hius auctions--unless it's a multiple item lot. So, if you'd had some familiarity with the set, you should have known. Not a good idea to buy a card from an unknown set in an auction. Better at a show, where you can hold the card in your hand--and ask the dealer to see 3-4 commons from the same set.
But--that's not your question. The answer to your question is no, you don't get your money back. Auctioneer says card is NOT trimmed (even if it's an INCH short!), and he doessn't accept the word of third parties...that means you bought an untrimmed card.
Don't think I'd do THAT again...
And what SGC said seems to be that the edges were too thick to be naturally worn..in other words, trimmed...
