I have a couple of cards in my collection that were slabbed "Altered" It offered a cheaper way to pick up a card for my PC that looks nice. If the choice was between a 1 that looks like it's been through the ringer or the Altered that presents nicely, I'll take the latter. I understand that might be sacrilege to some people, but collecting on a budget can be difficult at times.
All that being said, what I cannot stand is cards that are clearly altered ending up in numbered holders. Altered should be labeled as such, not passed as something with a number grade to achieve a higher profit.
