Jeff, here are before and after pictures of your card, side by side.

How did Collins get a mole next to his eye? I also see what looks like wrinkling or scuffing on the right side of the after pic, under the lettering and to the side of his face. Is that from the card saver?

Well, when you put it this way... the front before image here DOES look better but am guessing the mole and wrinkle are penny sleeve related. I sent him in to SGC for his tux fitting so I can't pull it out to see what gives here.

'twas an interesting experience for me, still glad to have tried it. Like they say, you either win, or you learn.

I'll post Eddie again when he's done with his Tux fitting in Boca Raton -

Jeff

I'm assuming the "before" image was saved from the listing and was created using a quality scanner. The "after" appears to be a phone pic, which will never do anything similar justice.

Are you sure you sent it to SGC?
