I guess I'm odd because I actually like both graded and raw cards. I have a lot raw that I can feel and see up close with a loupe. This helps me get comfortable with what a legit card is like so I don't get burned when buying other raw cards. But I also like many of my HOFers to be graded to protect them and to give them their own display in a way.

What I wanted to ask you though, Sealmark, is how are people who collect graded cards "REALLY" hurting you? You emphasize that statement so I just wondered if you could expand on it a bit.

Thanks,

AndyH
