I sent in this Gary Carter to get graded and PSA rejected it with the Not Holdered, Evidence of Trimming. I have had this card since I bought it in 1985 from a baseball card shop. I am shocked as I have had this for 20 years and I don’t think it would have been trimmed. Cards were not even that expensive back them. I think I paid $12.00 for it at the time. I have included a scan. Should I try to send it in again or am I wasting my time?

Is the card perfectly rectangular when placed on that edge?

I think the card has been trimmed from the looks of the scan. It looks as if someone gave it a haircut on the right hand side in the purple area. I could tell if the card was in my hand. Try feeling the card on the right hand side side by running your finger down the side. Does the card have the same grain all the way down the card?

<< <i>I checked the size against a 2006 Topps. The sides Left/right are about 1/16 off and the top/bottom is a little less than 1/8 off. I think I am going to send it in again. If it comes back trimmed then I guess I put it away or send it off to GEM. lol >>
I hate to say this, but if you're off by that much this card has virtually no chance of getting slabbed
