I will say this to Beckett's credit, I'm glad they offer the subgrades on the slab unlike PSA. This helps members track cards and see what subgrades got bumped and by looking at the vast majority of these recently trimmed cards, it is the "corners & edges" that always get the big bump. Comparing these numbers with the before and after's allows members to focus on certain areas and find the altered places on the cards.

As always Dan, great work and great work to anyone else involved in this case.

I foresee trimmers and those involved in these bumping scheme's and altering schemes to end up focusing on using PSA due to them not listing the subgrades and ultimately making it harder on those who try to identify these alterations.
