Wow, Mark - I'd love to hear more about some of those counterfeit Zeenuts that you had acquired slabbed.
Although I'd typically agree with Adam, in relying on TPG for pre-war cards, I have to admit that I've liberated about 80% of the tabbed Zeenuts I've purchased over the years. I just don't see the value proposition of having a card in Good, VG or worse condition in a heavy piece of slabbed plastic. They look so much better in my binders liberated, and I like to think that feeling the cards raw in my hands helps me understand if they're period pieces.
Although I have to suggest that Mark's note has me nervous, as I feel like I've perhaps handled a single Zeenut for every 1,000 Zeenuts that Mark has seen over the years.
