What a thought-provoking debate. I think it comes down to what you're buying at the end of the day...
are you buying the card itself or the number on the sealed case. I don't think there's anything wrong with
buying a card for its grade rather than its true physical health -- at the end of the day when you buy memorabilia,
you're buying a story, and part of a card's story is its grade. But then again, I also see
how the OG card collecting community would argue to just care about the cardboard.
Either way, very interesting hypothetical you pose, thanks so much for sharing.
