I was watching that Contenders, and actually got up to see what it was doing with about 5 minutes left.
It appeared to be a legit copy (no trimming) but I was obviously hesitant, and decided not to go for it.

I actually took mine out, and measured some areas of the image, and the distance to certain borders to see if I could ascertain if the card was "off" (trimmed) just by measuring the same aspects via the image.
I dunno what I came up with, it was 3am.. but I didnt bid.

It did end at a really odd time, but the user is located in Hawaii, so it was like noon time for them, when it ended.
I do agree that it probably cost them a few bucks, but people are so hesitant about raw copies these day, so Im not surprised.

Still a decent price for a raw copy.. card looks like a 9 if its not altered. thats a 5k card if graded.
