This may be true for modern cards, but I'd never pay any high end money for any prewar card that wasn't slabbed. With all the trimming & tampering that happens, anything that wasn't third party endorsed wouldn't get my money. Most people buy the card, some the holder. But, for me, I've seen cards I've bought for investment in a holder go up considerably, while others I enjoy for my collection hold their value while being protected in the holder. The PSA 3 here mentioned was an obvious error, as we're all human. But, for protection, resale value, I trust the tpg's for my cards unquestionably.
