Default Pop Reports do have Value...

Pop reports offer a lot of value for me on T210's, T211's, OJ's, etc. as you can still see trends, especially the low pop trend numbers. Yes, there will always be raw stuff, so one has to adjust their mind set to allow for a certain amount, but when I see 19 graded Elmer Smith's from the OJ set and only 7 Charlie Brynan's, I think there is correlation that there are probably more Elmer's available. Also, after looking for certain players for years, and comparing pop reports, the trends gain more credibility. (Especially the cards with only a few graded examples) Also, I like to take SGC and PSA to get a net total. (I am sure some overlap due to crossover, but my guess is not many)

2 cents...
