Chris,
i remember that, when in the early mid 80s coins started in the graded world
it turned me off, so i decided to sell my entire coin collection! i raised 32K
went to B of A and borrowed 5k more and purchased a 7-11 franchise in
Hawthorne Ca. not long after that late 80s i remember the PSA people coming around shows advertising card grading and most dealers laugh at
that!! and the rest as they say is history.
