What percentage of your collection is graded?

[parkplace33]

Interested to see the results!

Almost 90 percent of my collection is raw.

[Knightlax5]

My collection is 100% graded or will be graded. I work on sets within the PSA set registry, so it need them all PSA graded

[NiceDocter]

I have maybe 1% graded. That range of 1-25 is too large.

Agreed. I have about 100 graded cards out of probably 40K+ so well below 1%.

[Neal]

Less than 10%

[aelefson]

I have zero graded cards/items and do not intend to own any in the future. My cards are not that valuable anyway, but I do have some decent photos and other items that I have no plans to grade. If I decide to sell any in the future, I might have to grade some but I will not until I am ready to sell.

I picked the 1-25% option but in reality it is more like .0001%. I have maybe 15-20 graded cards at the most.

10% of the cards but 90% of the value is graded

Same thing for me.

[John1941]

I have eight graded cards out of a collection of 40K or so, so approximately 0.02 percent.

[samosa4u]

If most of you (so far) selected 1-25 percent, then you must have cheap cards !!

Me three. Although its probably closer to 99% of the value is graded for me, even if I have way more ungraded cards in total.

Hard to find extremely valuable raw cards, and I always find it a little risky when I do see them. In the back of my mind, I always wonder why they haven't been graded--what is wrong with them that I am not seeing....

Bingo. Not sure whether the standard here is just based on sheer numbers, or value. A gigantic mountain of raw junk wax goes a long way to tipping the scales without really being meaningful.

^^^This.

[jethrod3]

Higher than 0 but lower than 1%. Much lower. Closer to 0.005%.

Same. Maybe 0.001%

For my entire collection, I have 42, although a coulple of these will be cracked out over the next month or so. I estimate I have 20k cards, so that's .21%.

For pre WW2, I've about 1700 cards, 20 are graded or about 1.18%

I should add that all were bought graded, must broken out, some kept, but 0% were graded by me.

[Balticfox]

0%

[Big J]

If you count sets that I have in binders then I have about 5-10% graded. If its individual PC cards that aren't part of sets then it goes up to about 50% and I have them in showcases on the wall of my office/card room.

Can I receive a text alert when Jim Ingram posts?

[calvindog]

I think the better question is: what percentage in value of your collection is graded?

No. While some boards have a "Follow User" feature which enables precisely that, this one does not.

[oldjudge]

Exactly (to Jeff's comment)! Do you mean the percent in volume or dollars? It could be a very different answer.

[OhioLawyerF5]

Probably 10-20% for me. But I only buy graded cards when that's what's available. I have never sought out a graded card.

[robw1959]

I have several complete vintage (pre-1972) sets composed of nearly two thousand cards, so no way am I grading all of that. Additionally, I have over 100 vintage (pre-1975) Hall of Famers that are each currently valued at around $100 or less, so no way am I grading those either. My graded cards comprise less than 5% of my total collection.

[CardPadre]

0% until I started a frightening experiment whereby I have a complete set of cards in the holder of a long-defunct grading company.

Using proprietary “Collector Camouflage by CardPadre”, I can very much enjoy the display of the set since the toxic visual pollution emitted by flips has been eradicated, but not being able to touch the cards is still a struggle in progress.

[DaveW]

I only have a handful of graded cards, but only because they came that way. I voted for 0 instead of 1-25 because I’m closer to 0% than 1%.

[pawpawdiv9]

For me-
Any t206 can be raw as well strip cards
However my “big heads” are all psa for registry
And any card over 2k probably will already be graded

[steve B]

No category for between 0 and 1%

That's where I'm at, a few graded cards, but compared to a fairly large collection not really very many.

[Rickyy]

My Complete Sets (Topps BB + couple of Basketball and Football sets) are all ungraded and in albums.

My type card collection is mostly slabbed but only accounts for about 25% or less when you count the total # of cards.
