   Pro grading company? Just who is this company? Are they legit or would they grade my business card if I sent it in?

   Boo potts- If I was interested in recirculating a bogus card, and ripping off somebody, I would have done that already. I have kept the card in my collection for almost 5 years now.

   Some of these cutters aint cheap either - can list as high as a grand! And some have reported problems with getting "square" cuts - tho it does cut sharp. Then there's all kinds of lasers that cut paper and other materials. If there's enough money in trimming and resubmitting - it will be done and rumored that it is being…
