Jim, I see another potential problem with this. You will return the card to the dealer and not tell anyone else about the potential problem. Then what will the dealer do with this card? Probably resell it to someone else with no mention that it was returned because of probable alteration. The dealer will want to protect his/her investment. It would be nice if there was a way to either take the altered card out of circulation or slab/or label it as altered. With some of the cards, Kevin will feel "uncomfortable" with them, but with others Kevin will be positive that they are altered and someone else will end up purchasing them. If they are raw, then it is buyer beware, but if they are graded by PSA or SGC there should be a mechanism in place to remedy the situation.
