I guess grading does make a difference
 

Posted By: <b>paul</b><p>I think my ungraded card was slightly nicer than the graded one (no back damage), but sold for $70 less. I'm still happy with the price since I thought a Tharps or Harrington card of a low level Hall of Famer wasn't worth much, but still, this certainly shows that grading can make a difference.<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5241627754&ssPage Name=STRK:MEWA:IT" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5241627754&ssPage Name=STRK:MEWA:IT</a><br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5244616581&rd=1&sspage name=STRK%3AMESO%3AIT&rd=1" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5244616581&rd=1&sspage name=STRK%3AMESO%3AIT&rd=1</a><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>paul</b><p>I forgot that was Barry. I guess I did good consigning my more valuable cards to him.
