I prefer for my graded cards to have a numerical grade, but that's just me. Most people will say (I know because we've had this discussion before) that they would rather have a card with great eye appeal that is slightly trimmed and in an "A" holder than a beater that looks like it was folded up and carried around in some kid's watch pocket. I get that, but not every card in a 1 holder looks like that. I would rather have a card in a 10 or 20 holder that has some sort of technical problem that drives the grade down than an altered card. IMO the lower the technical grade the wider the potential variance in condition. There are a lot of nice cards out there in 10 and 20 holders.
