I was not saying that ebay or Al (or anyone on his team) is altering cards.
The only auction house I claimed was doing anything to the cards themselves was Heritage, because I know with absolute certainty that they regularly clean cards before submitting them for grading. I am not, however, accusing them of altering cards. I have no evidence that they've ever done so, and I don't believe that they would (again, cleaning is not altering). All I know for sure is that they clean them and make minor improvements by soaking them.

So Heritage has "in-house card doctors" but they don't alter cards? That one, I don't follow?
