It doesn't. That's why people say "buy the card, not the holder". It's also why 4s sometimes outsell 6s in the same auction. A card's current slab is just that. Only a fool buys a card based on the number on its slab. It is at best a starting point.

There are an awful lot of fools out there then, starting with the set registry.

Yes… roughly 90% of the hobby, unfortunately.

Heck yes. And if it weren’t for the bloody new image size limits on the site, I’d post some pics.

As to the original issue, it's all on PSA. I don't blame any company from selling an idiotic holdered card. It's not their responsibility to grade, only to sell. As we routinely see, holders sell!

I make a snide comment about the size of my…endowment, and the only response is a rebuke from the administrator for being insufficiently tech savvy!

Reminds me of the vintage Topps card I bought raw from Greg Morris last year as an "EXMT" card for about $50. It looked pretty good when it arrived though, so I sent it to PSA expecting a 7 but it came back in a 9 holder (pop 12 with none higher). Lol. I had no interest in owning a 9 though, so I bought another copy in similar condition for another $50 and sent the PSA 9 back to Greg Morris where some clown paid almost $5k for it because they just had to pip up the ranks on their registry. But like every other card in their collection, they just paid $5k for an over graded $50 card that was graded by an incompetent noobie grader at PSA.
