I slab for aesthetic and protection reasons mostly.

This Grove is a stellar card , especially given your comparisons! Nice job!

Beautiful Grove!

I'm with Brian. I don't collect slabs, but I'm a big fan of TPG. I'm not a part of any registry, so I can breathe easy when it comes to collecting. I'm willing to bet a lot of registry guys/gals know some of the time, they aren't buying the better appealing card and are just buying the number on the slab...which is quite sad
