I have been collecting since 1978 and have always liked cards in ex-mt or better condition.
Card prices for cards in NM condition (pre 1980) are bordering on the ridiculous. I attempted to buy a 1975 common in a Greg Morris auction several weeks ago. It was NM with a big print dot. I was willing to pay 2.00. The darn thing sold for 11.50. A bidding war for Larrin freaking Lagrow. I've come to the conclusion that even tho I don't collect graded cards I am still bidding against investors who are buying cards to grade. For this reason, mid grade is the way to go. As long as the card has decent centering with honest wear, that's good enough for me. |
