Most of what I buy is raw - some of what I collect, I like to have graded. Most of it, I submit myself.
But that limits me a bit, since I will only buy raw from reputable, honest sellers. As we all know, there are far more people who overgrade their cards, either because they're being deceptive or because they're stuck in the 80s.
When it's in a slab, I have a much more reasonable idea of what I'm going to get when I buy it on the internet.
