I realize I'm sticking my nose into a side discussion here, but after briefly looking at a few pages of this seller's feedback, it doesn't appear much of the 17K was from sportscard sales.
Regarding the choice to sell raw:
One other possible negative of choosing to sell these cards raw is you may have to deal with a few more returns or unhappy customers.
Some collectors may receive the cards and find a flaw that wasn't visible in the scan. While this issue could still exist with graded cards, it is minimized compared to selling raw. The seller also has to hope the buyer is honest and returns the original card (without any additional damage to the card as well).
I guess each method has it's positives and negatives, and each seller has to weigh them on their own. Raw? Graded? Ebay or auction house?
