So it seems, as long as you're at least as good at detecting alterations as the graders are, as seems to apply to an increasingly large proportion of Net54 members, that it's safer to buy raw since the altered ones will be fairly obvious.
Maybe I can sneak some of these past the TPG's. I guess I have been ahead of this grading curve for decades.
