Default Investment Grade Cards

Posted By: identify7

As Lee points out, investor grade cards include cards whose condition is less than pristine. Some think that the number of highly graded cards is adequate to fulfill the demand, but that the number of low graded cards is not.

Specifically, the baseball card hobby is experiencing an influx of collectors; many of whom do not choose to purchase more than $1000. worth of cards annually. However, these collectors demand many cards for their purchasing dollars.

Admittedly many more low grade cards exist than high grade cards, but there also exists many more low grade card collectors.

Could it be that f/g/vg t206 and Goudey cards are a better investment than PSA8s? That is not vg to vg/ex. That is f/g/vg grade. Could demand for this grade put more pressure on supply than the demand for any other grade range? I think so. What are your thoughts?
