my example involves the exact same card.. in a SGC older or new holder or PSA old or newer holder..doesn't really matter..just saying more often than not the PSA will sell for more...
I cant imagine the number of returns if all cards were sold raw....the disparity of 'mint' and near mint from sellers of raw cards would be just as much if not more than the different grades you get on resubmitting to TPG....sellers are a bit more biased on what they sell in terms of the condition they say its in.
