Collecting can still be fun but you need to decide what's best for you. One suggestion, take your time and sleep on it for a while (weeks or a few months). Many times the answer becomes clear after mulling it over for a while.

I would add that if your main concern is the cards losing value, as opposed to just hating the idea of having an altered card, I don't think you need to worry. Enough people don't care that it won't affect resale value.
Thanks for the advice, thoughts, and ideas. I appreciate your willingness to engage, even if it's tempting to laugh at my pain, because I had it coming for being a gullible rube.

And I'm definitely not going to move quickly. No sense in making a big decision based on one terrible event.
