People like yourself are the reason SOME people alter cards, I am not talking about soaking cards at this point, but many of the other aberations you bring up. Greed. You are willing to pay ridiculous prices to satisfy your ego and registry set without learning what you are buying. YOU and others like you are what illicit dealers in ALL hobbys thrive on, an uneducated collector with big bucks looking to buy high grade material with out questioning the item. It's a viscious cirle and your caught up in it.

The large consensus of collectors(read not investors) on this board are not concerned with any of the worries you have because they don't buy PSA 8's. (edited to add) Yes, a lot of high grade cards in all holders have been soaked out of scrap books, you probably own more than you would care to know.
