Context is everything. Value, venue, etc. I prefer a slab for a mail order card or a really expensive one, but if I can examine the card in hand, raw is just dandy.

The slab can make you lazy, even in person. Over the weekend in Anaheim a guy was peddling a fake Rose RC in a resealed slab. A friend bought it without paying close attention, I called it out as a fake and reseal, and he was able to chase down the walk-in who sold it and get his money back.
