Removal of the book from the case can cause damage as it requires effort, experience and in some cases a special tool. The sealed case also ensures the integrity of the grade assigned by the third party Grader, and ensures that no one replaces the book with a different, inferior copy. When removed, the value is diminished as the grade assigned is no longer certified and it will require re-submission to the third party Grader for total re-grading.
