Default VCP is a useful tool, but its not gospel

VCP is a good tool to use but it gets frustrating at times because many people use it as gospel and do not look at the differences between individual cards. Not all PSA 6's (or whatever grade) are created equal. It's so funny how everyone say's 'buy the card, not the grade' yet almost nobody really subscribes to that. This is also true when looking at older vs newer slabs. There is this automatic assumption that an old slab is worth less than a new slab meanwhile the card in the old slab could be outstanding yet value suffers just because of when it was graded. Last point, how would card values ever change is everyone just went off of VCP comps? At some point, a buyer or seller has to take a stand.
