Having have said that, i knew is was going to get a 1.5. I slabbed it SOLELY for protection.

When I read this post yesterday, I thought the same as what you wrote above and it got me thinking. I wonder if it would be possible to have grades for the front of a card and also the back?
I personally, and I assume others as well, don't necessarily
care as much about the looks of the backs as I do the fronts.
In rare/expensive cards, I can understand someone wanting a pristine card that is as perfect out back as it is on the front, but I think the majority don't really care to be honest?
