My team sets are raw but when I want a showcase piece for my Dodgers collection (Koufax, Snider, Robinson, etc.) I seek out a BVG half grade card (6.5, 7.5, 8.5)...My opinion is similar to Patrick's in that the visual difference between it and the next full grade up is so minor that it doesn't justify the amount of money you'll spend for half a point, and chances are, if you ever do need to sell it in the future like you mentioned, you can resubmit the BVG graded card to PSA for that half grade bump since historically Beckett has been a stricter grader.
