every card I send to psa grades at least 1 grade lower then I expect...
do they bump it for a regrade?? like some sort of scam????
I am totally upset with the grades I got.. and then they said my 59 maris was trimmed...
it measures perfect 3.5 x 2.5...
this card could not have been trimmed...

It could have been oversized and someone trimmed it, it could be sheet cut, or they could have made a mistake you can resubmit. I have gotten 2 cards through on the second time

Thanks for the help.... when they send it back will they say why or how it was trimmed???
because it measures perfect... I also had a perforated post creal card they slabbed..
but it looked like a 10 except for a water stain,, maybe the stain was too great?

IT IS literally the nicest card i have ever seen... from the 50's to the 80's that is
not counting centering... but even that doesnt detract much

the measurements do not matter , you need to look at the cuts under magnification to tell. PA doesn't always get it right but they will side on the conservative side if they have any doubts. check the cut swith a loop to see if bothedges are consistant with each other as well as the top and bottom and that the toning is consistant. also look to see if there is any unevenness under magnification of the edges , they may look straight to the naked eye but have a tell tale sign under magnification
