So the issue is that half of us think its ok to remove stains and the other half not. Face the facts or not it is accepted in the hobby. By auction houses, grading companies and individuals. And if some people cant see it, they should move on.
So IMO Brent or whoever owned card is in no way required to state he cracked out a card, took tape off and resubmitted. There are hundreds of cards in pop reports that are still listed and no longer in grade.

Ed this was not tape that was removed. The light areas were where the card had been protected by some sort of mount. The REST of the card was toned heavily, and that toning was removed, likely by a chemical. That may not affect your view, but that is what happened.
