I keep going back and forth about whether or not to crack out what I have slabbed. If PSA/SGC/Beckett all kick the bucket that will make the decision easier, but for now I'm leaving them in. Back when I was more active sending out TTMs, I remember cracking out a few SGC slabs. The process was fairly involved; I recall wrapping the card portion of the slab in a towel and sticking it in a vise, then using a hammer and chisel to crack open the label part of the slab, and from there just tearing the thing open. This was the first card I liberated in that way (unsigned at the time).
