Though it's probably not reasonable to assume the buyer would know immediately card in hand that it had been trimmed or altered.
That's why he used the expertise of a third party grader when choosing which card to buy, so that eyes more experienced than his own would render that opinion. A TPG company no less that would vouch for it's estimation with particular guarantees.
Not unreasonable at all to NEVER question it until being made aware of the possibility by yet others of greater hobby experience.
You could have the card for 20 years sitting in your safe and not give another thought to it's authentic grade, then upon taking it out find reason to question the possibility of alteration.
And subsequently need to seek recompense.
No?
