James, does it really puzzle you why people buy graded cards? Do you think it possible that some people want their “hard-earned cash” to become more as opposed to less when they sell their cards?

I rarely buy cards for investment purposes. But even the many that I buy for my collection, I tend to want them to be worth more, not less, when my kids sell them someday. Mainly because I care about my kids.

Ooooh spicy..., the "is grading cards good/bad" discussion is something I've never seen on a sports card forum. This should certainly be intriguing.

Yeah, I guess you're entitled to care about your kids. We all have our personal foibles.
