Restoring cards
Just curious what everyones' thoughts were regarding restoring cards? I'm a low grade collector (PSA 1), and it always amazes me to see the difference in price between a PSA 1 and a PSA authentic-altered card. For example, you can pick up a 52 topps Mantle in PSA 1 for around 3k but a decent recolored or deceptively trimmed Mantle, with great eye appeal, will set you back about 4k (prices are estimates based on my following of the market when I searched awhile ago for my copy). Given the difference in price, it seems almost as if it would be worth it from a an economic perspective to restore and regrade a PSA 1, assuming it is suitable for restoration and doing so would cost less than 1k. Thoughts?
