My opinion is that people who deceptively alter cards will be dishonest in other ways, ways which collectors will know about-- including authenticity, deceptive descriptions, dubious advertising practices, shill prices to the moon. There's no such thing as a person who is liar and a cheat in one aspect, and honorable and honest in all other ways. Experienced collectors know who are the honest dealers and who are the dishonest. If a collector buys from a dealer known to shill and lie and fib, the collector shouldn't later be shocked to find out that there is a fourth and fifth unethical things the dealer does too.
