I JUST bought a card that was obviously trimmed, but the seller disclosed it, and the card had great eye appeal. Normally, I would shy away from it, but if the card is rare (this one was), or I just can't live with the hole in the collection, I have no problem buying trimmed cards.
However, since some people DON'T disclose it, I keep a few commons around for each set if I can, and measure them carefully. I think there is a HUGE difference between buying a known trim, and discovering it yourself after the fact.
