Grade worship!

Brilliant , and spot on assessment of the culture that we are in, Orly.

Of course, we are smart collectors on this board.
We know what a nice card looks like. About 1 in 10 posts is about grading complaints or grading system issues, but we still know which cards are nice despite the assigned TPG.

When we utilize the TPG, we will often disagree with their paid opinion.
That's no different than disagreeing with a mail order dealer from the old days, or the hopeful listing description of a eBay dealer.

I love that cards come in all different grades, low and high. I like them low.
Not only are the low ones cheaper, but there are fewer disagreements on P/F/G cards.
