Default How do you feel when you see this in an auction

Posted By: Peter_Spaeth

It seems inconsistent on the one hand for people to say they don't have a problem with erasing pencil marks, removing ink, etc. (as distinct from trimming rebuilding corners etc. etc.), but on the other hand for people to complain about someone doing this on a crackout and then resubmitting the card to SGC. If the "restoration" or whatever neutral term we use is permissible, then SGC graded two different cards, in effect. Why does it make any difference that the card came out of a slab? Analytically isn't it exactly the same as if the card had never been graded and the same "restorations" performed?
