First Vintage Set - Graded vs. Raw?
Hello,
Some of you may have seen my new member intro post. I am new into vintage and really wanted to build a set. With the help of Gustomania I selected 1956 topps and decided to start with graded to get my feet wet. I planned to do the entire set graded over multiple years. However, now that I have good examples of grades four through six (about 30 cards) and have looked the cards over closely, I am considering moving to raw for a few reasons. Mainly, being able to flip through my cards in binder and enjoy them more often rather than storing a few heavy boxes and having to flip through slabs. Looking to hear pros and cons of graded vs. raw sets. Would love to hear why you chose to do your sets graded or raw. If you do raw, do you do your bigger cards graded? My bigger cards will likely be 2s to 3s so I am considering buying those graded and cracking out to add to binder. Thanks for helping me work through this decision.
