Thankfully, I'm a low grade collector. I do not understand the need, or desire, to spend $30K on a Henderson RC because it's a '10.' Trust me, I get that many people want 'the best' card but that's just not me.
I'm putting together a '33 Goudey set and I usually buy raw G-VG cards. I love looking at them in a binder with all the wear and tear. I feel like this allows me to not have to worry (as much) about fakes and scams.
Eventually, the only cards I will buy graded will be the Gehrig's and the Ruths-even then I'll be looking at 'A'-2 range.
