I agree. 6 or 7 months ago we sold a 1956 and 1957 Hank Aaron on eBay. Both cards bore signs of alteration and we noted this in the description. In each case, the alteration had been performed to enhance the card's appearance. The final selling price was approximately 150% of the NM value. Without the alteration, I would guess that each card would have graded EM. We also sold a 1914 CJ Honus Wagner that had been professionally graded but was trimmed. Again, we noted this in the description. Curiously, the winning bidder didn't seem to care.
