So how much does it have to be worth before it's worth doing the job right?
^^^ One of the biggest problems "we" have in society, from major corporations to kids flipping burgers. Every job is worth doing right. If it's not "worth it" to do it right they need to ___ off to some other job. |

One of the first shows I went to once grading got big a bunch of dealers had boxes full of inexpensive cards in sort of low grades, all for sale for less than the standard grading fee. Apparently they would send in every card in a collection that was halfway decent for a very low bulk price, make very good money on the few 8+ and unload the rest barely above cost. I'm just annoyed at the attitude I see all too often that shoddy work should be given a pass because the job doesn't pay well, or the there isn't much money involved. The old "It was graded years ago" and "it's not worth much anyway" just seems wrong, especially here. That card was vg, maybe vg-ex way before grading even existed. It's decades past when we should be making excuses for the "experts" Our local fast food basically got orders wrong about 20% of the time and "it's ok because they only make minimum wage". Then what usually follows is that if they're paid more better workers can be hired. Nope! Now the local mcds is paying almost 20/hour and still messing up regularly. |

I collect complete sets in graded condition, therefore commons have to be graded. Rather look at a nice common graded in nm instead of all the stars I see in 1 or 2.

It doesn’t matter because it’s old. It doesn’t matter because it’s not expensive. These graders got it good, I’ve never seen a customer base so willing to embrace any mental gymnastics to dismiss their repeated and frequent incompetence.
