I would get all of the HOF'ers in your best set slabbed by SGC for sure if that is the slab you prefer. I would not spend $30 a pop for commons. If they were still grading low value cards at $10/each, I would grade the entire set but at triple that it is just not worth it. I would not break any out of slabs unless you intend to have the PSA graded cards graded by SGC. Sorry, it is just not smart to break cards out of slabs just because you like them raw. The slabs protect the cards from damage and make them much easier to sell if you pass away and your heirs decide to sell them.
