I have one of the collector's club accounts, and I have renewed three straight years. It pays for itself. I don't want to take the risk with someone else's cards that they get damaged, stolen, or have to report to you that they all came back trimmed/altered.
It's not that expensive. And it's worth it.

I'm not sure how much I would actually use it. I do have about 80 raw cards right now but realistically speaking that's a lot of $$$$.

The $180 fee up front is what's preventing me. I know it more or less pays for itself but I've had pretty good luck in the past with people submitting for me.

I don't mind if my card comes back trimmed or altered. It's happened before and will happen again.

Right now there's really only a couple cards I really want slabbed anyway.
