"Can you blame them? How many "tip of the iceberg" comments do we all have to suffer through from those that have no interest in graded cards? It is amazing how grading has negatively affected some peoples lives."

What a lame, and feeble response.
Collectors that are able to grade for themselves, are not affected by the illusionary icebergs that you're hearing about from your own INVESTORS.
Study the Ostrich, and dig your head deeper.
--------------------------
If you plan on sleeping with your raw cards next to your pillow, avoid third-party graded cards!

Sir, you are shooting off your Topps/Fleer mouth without knowing what the hell you're talking about.
You come over here from where ever you sell your cards in Po Dunk USA, and ass ume that just because some of the people on this board prefer to grade their own cards, because of their greater experience in collecting ... You ass sume that we hate graders.
Now let me do an imitation of one of your favorite presidents ... Read My Lips!
We don't hate third party graders. ... We Just Don't Need Them!
YOU DO.
Sir, this past Friday, I went to the Chantilly Va. show.
I own 2 T206 sets, my favorite the beater, only needs nine for total completion.
Then I have the mucho, mucho better set, that only needs one for total completion.
I brought the better set with me, because I wanted to show it to the 16 year old T206kid. ... I also brought along the Lipset Doyle.
The meeting never came about, but while I was showing it to a dealer, Roger Neufeldt a dealer from Norman, OK happen to pass by, he knew the set wasn't for sale, he just wanted to look at it.
His table wasn't far from where I was sitting, and he had about 3 or 4 people working his table, they all took turns in coming over to look at the set.
In my observation, of their observations,I could swear that I detected both male and female climax's (depending of course on the gendre.)
Charlie, I'll match that RAW (one card shy) T206 set, with any T206 set on the registry.
I lived 60 years in the heart of NYC.
Lived another 16 years in Virginia.
I know my cards, and I know them RAW.
Don't you ever knock a RAW card collector again.
-------------------------
If you plan on re-selling your holy pieces of cardboard anytime in the future, third-party grading is the way to go!

Of course I would.
I said I'm a RAW card collector.
I didn't say I was stupid. ................
