Default Minimum T206 size

Posted By: Joann

lolol Gil - you're right, I asked something like this long long ago on 11/17.

I kind of like the idea of measuring the image portion and establishing some guideline for overall size so you can estimate from a scan. Maybe I'll try that sometime way down the road when I have time.

But now I'm even more confused. To me, when a seller says that a card is "short" I kind of assume they are announcing it may be trimmed. If there is 1/8" variation T/B on T206's, what are people announcing something is short to? And if there isn't anything, why are they saying a card is short (casting some aspersions on it) when there isn't a real standard for determining what's short and what isn't?

So does all of this add up to not being able to use boarder size (and T/B in particular) as an indication of trimming? Just use other indicators like waviness, bat-ears, etc?
