I think the war between collectors who like raw cards and those who like graded ones will rage on until the current generation of oldtimers is dead and buried. While I do not collect cards if I did I would probably still prefer to keep them raw. But when I decided to sell, I would have them graded in a heartbeat. If you try to sell them raw, they will just be graded by the next guy and instead of you getting all the money he will reap everything you left on the table. You can collect any way you want, but there is only one way to sell. For better or for worse.
