quick tip...

another quick tip to detect trimming is simply by running your finger along the edges. takes a little while, but take a older common card and trim one side. then run your finger along the factory edge and the newly trimmed edge. it's a very noticeable difference! the trimmed edge will definitely feel "smoother".

although, agreed with other folks. simply because the card is shorter doesn't necessarily mean it's been trimmed. a lot of time it's simply a factory miscut.

and if it's over the internet, always deal with someone that has a return policy.
