I’ve cracked a couple thousand or so. For me, it’s because the card might not be available raw. In my little realm I might have to wait a few years or just never get a card if I’m picky about the container it ships in. Most people grade the decent stuff, so a lot of my scarcer material was put into my collection via cracking the slab open. If I’m looking for a poor grade T206 Mathewson, I’ll just get a raw one, but if I want a card that has ~10 copies known, it doesn’t make sense to be picky. Buy it and crack it.
