If collectors say just leave everything as is that's fine, but I still feel that the system currently in place is a poor one.
I like the current grading system because IMO it keeps plastic collectors away from the "low grade" cards with a nice photo. It also seems to keep alot of oj's raw. Which is the way I like to collect them. I like slabs sometimes but if its an old judge, I open it.
