Just my opinion. I knowingly avoid them like the plague. "Knowingly" you ask? If you collect in this hobby for a long time and buy ungraded cards there is a likelihood you will get an altered card eventually. I have purchased a few with the lesson after the fact.

The cards in my opinion are worth, at best, only pennies on the dollar and only to someone who is desperate enough for an example. Just be upfront with the person.
