Default About soaking cards

Posted By: Tom Boblitt

dead horse here.....many will continue to soak. I'm guilty too. Freed about 600 cards from a vintage scrapbook -- about 90% non-sports but also some N162's--two of which reside in SGC70 and SGC60 holders. They are no longer in my collection and they were sold as SGC70 and SGC60's. I did tell the person who bought them that they'd been soaked. They did not look soaked but were. The 60+ Old Judges had been skinned, so no back. They were soaked out and sold on ebay as such and brought great prices for what they were.

There will never be concensus on this. There will always be two sides. It' as polarizing as many of the issues that confront us in the Republican/Democratic debate. I'd say that each side has their beliefs and I'd warrant that most of the card 'doctors' who soak here sleep just as well as the 'purists'. At least Dr. Me slept fine last night.....
