Entombed in Plastic

[ullmandds]

For me...I used to be strictly a collector...I probably never sold a card until maybe 8 yrs ago. Now being a little tired of the type collecting I've been doing for decades...am selling cards to fund newer...more exciting cards. For this reason alone I find it prudent to have many of my cards graded prior to selling if they are high value cards. I have only had maybe 50 or so cards graded myself...all the rest were purchased that way...and I have only broken a few slabs to resubmit. I envy all raw collectors as this is the way it should be!

I pity those who have never held a raw card in hand...as many issues are variable in card stock, thickness, etc...and this is easily witnessed with a raw card in hand!
