Scan is cropped not showing full psa casing

Just curious why seller of an expensive card would crop the scan, not allowing the full psa case to be seen?
Opinions?
Anyone know how to tell the other cards in the same submission?
Any other comments?

    who's the seller? card looks ok? what cropping are you talking about? (edit: guess you are talking about the left edge of the PSA slab?)

    The scan doesn't allow you to see the full casing...like maybe there could be frosting on edges that cant be seen?

    Seller looks ok

    Relax... The holder appears fine and there's not much cropped. BTW, the submission that the PSA 10 was on had three PSA 9 Griffey's preceeding the PSA 10 and several other Tiffany cards afterwards. The submission history looks legit.

    Thanks. I have just bought "questionable" cases before, and always just a little leary on expensive cards.
    Love to get advice from this board.
  • I have a bad habit of doing the same thing. Just ask the seller to provide a scan that shows the entire slab.

    i always crop like that as well..... with my scanner there is a shadow and i try to feature just the card and not the psa case....i think i will continue to do it this way and if someone wants a full scan i will do it that

    Some scanners will miss a little bit of the edges of the scanning area. If he put this card in the upper-right corner of the scan bed, he'd have some "cropping" like that.
