Default More Grading stuff...

Posted By: Gilbert Maines

$1000.00 for grading ..... one thousand dollars for grading? And some people think I am crazy for buying baseball cards - well these guys are buying houses for their cards. Big McMansion style houses!

See honey !!!! How smart your husband is?

Yeah, you are right. I am just a cheap old fool.

I know, if I really cared about my cards, Id want them to be nice and snug in a prestigeous accomodation. Not one of those downscale NASA, AAA or PRO houses.

But that grand is only to start. Soon enough they will have to move out - our place just ain't good enuff. They will need a 24hr/day gated community with fire suppression, security .... and eventually ... the dreaded silica gel.

Who knows how much more that will cost, and what does silica gel do to the environment, and is it really smuggled into this country illegally? And suppose it takes out all of the moisture?

See? this is too much! Ill just haveta buy a dozen or so cards with that $1000. - it is the only safe way to proceed.
