Default Is grading getting to expensive?
Posted By: Anonymous

Jason,
It may be that they are subsidizing the costs of expertizing and encapsulating lower priced cards by charging a higher price on the higher priced cards.

Even with a subsidy, I just don't see how having lower priced cards graded is profitable for the seller. Paying $50 or even $40 to sell a card for $100? Why not just sell the card for $60 and avoid the shipping costs and time involved in grading?
