Unless the card (or any collectible for that matter) is all-original, my eyes will always be drawn to the newly added color, trimming or bleaching.

Any aspect that is not original to the card itself will automatically deem the card useless to me. Weird... huh!
Oh, I definitely don't want trimmed, recolored, or bleached cards either. My goal is to bring them back at close as possible to their original condition.
