Glad he posted it. Hopefully this sort of thing eventually takes us from these card prices that increase exponentially by numerical grade back to the good old-fashioned prices that increase linearly (and barely) by condition. I much preferred when the NM-Mt cards were 2x the price of VG cards.

I admire your optimism, but I think more people than not understand that this goes on and don't care.

That’s the bottom line...many if not most know and do not care.

I agree...big bordered cards are the ideal ones to trim down.

This too is Evan. Also presented without comment. I am not sure how it connects to trimming cards.

Sometimes shinning a flashlight in the darkness can get uncomfortable, but I'd rather be uncomfortable and aware than not.
