T202 graded set question
Was wanting some advise. I have a complete T202 set that is graded as follows:
about 35% of the set is graded of that a little over half are PSA and the rest are SGC. I am looking to get the rest encapsulated but here is the deal - I prefer PSA but in light of recent "issues" Im a little concerned about their future. Also one of my Cobbs is graded SGC 30/2 and Im pretty sure if I try to cross it over PSA will give it a 1 due to a center crease ( not a fold). SGC holders are nicer but the majority of my higher graded cards are in PSA slabs (my set probably averages a 2 but I have some 3-6 grades). Should I go with PSA or mix and match in order to not downgrade the one Cobb? Thanks! |

Why are you wanting to grade them, it makes a big difference on the advise you will get.

They are hard to display when so many are raw and so many are stabbed. I'd prefer to display them slabbed and should be easier to find a display case that way. Plus there will always be the factor of resale value even though I don't plan on selling.

If for sale I always advise to wait to slab them right before you sell them. You never know what will happen to a grading company in the future. Then they change their slabs and everyone wants the latest and greatest version of that slab. |

For optimal display value you should crack them all out of their slabs and mount them all on a dark backing...raw...Archivally and all!

If grading, my preference is to get them all uniformly PSA, but that will be a heavy, bulky lot - still difficult to display. SGC presents the same challenge. Cracking them out is an option; for my raw sets I use Vario pages / binders. The pages come in different sizes - you can probably get ones that handle three cards. The downside is that the reverse is obscured. However, they do pop!
