Does this card look trimmed / oddly cut or is it me?

I've been looking at the upper left side going into the corner... Looks like an odd cut angle, but hard to tell be cause the card has a tilt and the edge of the card is near a spacer in the holder. Thoughts? Thanks!

If I sent that in, it comes back EOT.
Lower right side, too. If you view it on the reverse lower left, it's easier to tell how it curves slightly inward. I wouldn't feel comfortable with that in hand.
It may be bowed in the holder, not necessarily laying flat causing the illusion that the edges aren't straight.

schapko, I might believe that theory if I didn't already know that the Staubach rookie is notorious for miscuts. There are plenty of fuglies floating around on eBay. Even examples graded with an OC qualifier have angulated cut problems, but somehow make it into holders.
Upper left definitely looks off.
Agree, this is what it looks like to me.
I guess 4 sharp corners is capable of putting up a zoom scan when they want.

Nearly a year later, it is still up for sale. 4sc continues to lower the price, it will be interesting to see what it ultimately sells for.

look at the rear view, the whole left edge looks like a bad trim job and doesn't even look cut straight at all

I think it is a bowed card and not miscut. If you do look along the left edge as @dictoresno suggests, you can see the slight flare out on both top and bottom which any card laying curled from being stored in a set for years would appear similar to.
With that being said, I would have expected an approximate minimum grade of 7 had I submitted it due to the 4 tip touches, albeit light.
