Many people have replied to this thread that they would like to see an end to number grades on slabs. My question is this, if you buy the card and not the slab as many of you like to say, then what difference does it make to you what number is printed on the slab? Does it have wat you see as an adverse effect on the market?

I know for me personally being new to this era of cards, the grading systems make me feel more comfortable with what I'm purchasing. I'm still trying to learn as much as I can about how the cards are graded and to look at the card and not just the grade. But without the current system I would probably never be comfortable enough with my own knowlege to invest in these types of cards.
