Problem here is that we can’t just buy the steel from a different supplier. These three companies have established themselves as the sole arbiters of card quality. Everyone uses them. So you either put up with their bull or you go with raw cards or buy cards already slabbed. There’s enough of them. The people who are really screwed on this are the pros waiting for inventory to come back from grading purgatory. If you buy a collection and need some of the cards graded for resale you can forget about getting your money out quickly. I sent PSA some cards in November from a collection I purchased and I will be lucky to have them back by Easter. That capital is tied up for six months before I can even try to get out.
