Default I give up on grading

Posted By: Patrick McHugh

Jay I feel your frustration. Been there many times. But i will continue to submit as overall i am very pleased. Jim Crandell bring's up a point that I agree with. There is not alot of pre-war ungraded out there that would grade 8 or higher. Many collectors of ungraded cards still grade their cards with old grading standards. Meaning that a card with an unseen surface wrinkle that appears mint is.This is not to say that graded or ungraded collecting is better as everyone has there own choices. In todays market I would buy graded over ungraded for investment or resale,but i do also have ungraded cards in my collection. Always remember the hardest cards to grade are the one's you own!
