Josh,

Good question, I have only once picked at a T206 of mine. It was a little speck of something, when flicked it left a nice tiny missing piece of paper.

Card was raw and card was sold raw years ago. From there on out I didn’t screw with stuff.

In fact I have a nice Matty now with a tiny dot of crud on the rim of the cap, should I crack it out and soak it to remove? I’m fine with it, and by doing so if in fact I raised the grade on the card and its value. I would have doctored the Matty, no matter how innocent the terms.



Lets also not split hairs here guys. Were not talking about a tiny speck and an innocent scratch of a finger! Were talking about a multi step process of removing major amounts of damage to a card, which can’t be done by a hundred scratches of a finger. Huge difference, I’m also not playing the holier than thou card either. I’ve copied software, I’ve downloaded a few tunes without paying the artist (Sorry Bono),I've even dare I say it looked at naked ladies on the web! So I’m no angel by any means.

I just think major card work isn’t Kosher. (Can I say that as a Goy/Goyim?)
