Okay / let’s tackle that question - I don’t grade my packs because I have seen too many packs ruined by the grading system. Yes it legitimizes the insides but if you are mostly keeping them anyway there is no need for me personally to grade them.
If I can grade them and they come back graded in the exact same condition with no tears or crumpling, I am all in.
Also, since I jumped into collecting and then selling my dups, I have sold more packs than anyone can truly imagine. I have sold to collectors who do submit them for grading and those that don’t and I have sold them to pack breakers. While I have not personally sent them in for grading, I have been approached by auction houses to grade them and then put them up for auction, and I may test that out soon. But I have also been selling comics and cards for 50 years so my age also dictates how much more I want to dive in as I am doing fine as is. Only reason to grade my packs is I could sell a ton more of them. Maybe soon.
Any more questions? I am always open and ready to text, email or talk on the phone.
Thanks,
Steve
