I have seen some older posts where some collectors feel this way and was just wondering what the consensus is...
Depends on what you mean by lower grade condition. Most T205 have some degree of chipping on the edges and sometimes some wrinkles. Also, there are some cards that lower rade is all you can find. Most of the cards I have would grade out SGC 20 but I do have some 10 cards and then I have a few 40 cards. It really varies but this condition really varies widely. High grade is hard to find.
