last time I ever listen to ebay and start an auction at 99 cents....

Here's the thing, and I am not trying to condescend or offend anyone...

I do not know the first thing about selling cards or anything else. But I learned a hard lesson when I was desperate for money years ago. When I sell cards, they aren't worth crap. When someone else sells cards, they are worth a fortune. It's just how it is. Thus, I only buy cards I like and I know I will keep. I like card collecting for their history, the time when these guys played and the interesting stories associated with them, and I like having them. I couldn't give a hoot in Hell about card grading, or investment, or selling them. I say this repeatedly and get ignored repeatedly, because this forum caters to those who look at raw cards as if they are either fake or not worth anywhere near as much as graded. I say who cares? I have the last laugh, knowing I am not the only one who just collects raw cards. I'm just the in the minority on this forum.

Maybe we read different posts, but the raw is better (or at least raw is beautiful) crowd seems to be pretty well represented around here. Not sure if they’re necessarily in the majority, but they’re definitely plentiful.

Exactly. This is the last place where people have many problems with raw cards.
