Same problem previously
I ran into this same question about 3-4 months ago. I am now about 120 cards into the 1939 Playball set. I do have all the HOF'ers and the very few key cards (Moe Berg, etc.) slabbed (most purchased slabbed, some sent to PSA), but was looking to slab the remainder of my VG-EX to NM set for protection purposes. Even slabbing the remaining 80 or so cards really was not worth it--I could almost buy the remaining 41 cards I need with the money spent to encase the commons I have. With these sets, as the others have stated, protecting the HOF and key cards (and maybe only the BIG ones) is important, but I would certainly recommend with low-grade cards saving your money.
