Opinions on Soaking/Pressing

I would not sing a different tune. If I found out tomorrow that certain of my cards had been soaked, I likely would not discard them, but I might very well seek to upgrade or swap them out, and I DAMN SURE would disclose the fact that they had been soaked if and when I went to sell them. After all, if it doesn't matter that the card has been soaked, then what's the harm in disclosing the soaking? Would you disclose--oh that's right, your cards already come in a pretty little slab, no need to care what the card might have actually looked like at one time.

And I do understand other people's points. I simply disagree with Josh, as I indicated.

As for answering questions, what about mine? If PSA slabs it, is it good to go? If an intentional pencil mark is intentionally erased and is undetected, no harm, no foul? Different from soaking how?
