I picked up this Bench RC to send out next month for my TTM project. I was just wondering if it looks trimmed to anyone? I purchased it from a reputable seller that has a ton of feedback (100%). I don’t know if I am being paranoid but the edges look almost too good. I tried measuring it up against another card and I am still not sure. I was wondering if you guys could give me your opinion. The card was not cheap and I would hate to spend the money on the donation to Bench for his auto on a trimmed card.

    Maybe a little bit tilted, but doesn't look trimmed.

    I'm not expert on the subject, but it doesn't look trimmed to me.

    That is great news. I really didn't want to send it back because it has decent eye appeal. I think he charges $40 though his foundation.

    I'm not sure if it is trimmed, but for some reason I think it is miscut....is the card in hand?? Look at that bottom border really closely.....

    Good luck getting him back... mine must have got lost in the mail - Bench is the only card I've never got back when sending money to a foundation!

    This is not the first time I've heard this....I would wait until he does his next signing through MAB (which is frequent) and do it via their mail order
