A couple points better centered and this would grade higher. One of nearly 15,000 cards, lots, and sets up for bid in our 4th Auction of 2019. Click on the link above to view the other PWCC auction lots. The PWCC Vault is now live! Open a PWCC Vault account and receive a custom Vault shipping address. Purchases shipped to the Vault receive free shipping and reflect Oregon's 0% sales tax rate

If you see a 1971 Nicklaus PSA 10 come up soon, you'll know where it came from.
My far bigger concern, and it applies to all major ebay sellers who take consignments and auction houses, is that they (or most of them) are outlets for card doctors. I get it -- the TPG gives them cover etc. etc. -- but it's very troubling to me nonetheless. If anyone thinks all this high end inventory is just coming from collectors, with due respect, you're naïve.

I know you're probably right and that is sad.

I knew all my cards with razor sharp corners were trimmed, now I'm sure of it.

Would PWCC refer you to a good card Doctor after purchase you think?
