Default About soaking cards

Posted By: Frank Wakefield

I gotta make sure I understand this.

If I win a raw T206 on eBay, and the card arrives uninsured as is, and the post office has folded the envelope, lord have mercy, my T206 is folded in half. If I understand, for me to unfold and flatten out that card would be altering it. I would be changing the condition in which I found it, improving it. And I know SGC would grade it lower if I sent it in folded...


Hmnn..... I wounder what SGC would do if I mailed them in a T206 folded at a right angle. A) refuse to grade it, B) put it in a right angle slab graded authentic... or C) flatten him out and put him in a normal slab. Maybe someone should mail them such a card, just to find out what would happen. Or maybe try a T206 with the corner folded over.

Unbelievable.
