That's what I'm afraid of, although it's more of "not take a bath" than "maximize profits."
Here's an example:
I just received this card earlier this month. It was a consignment with a well respected member on SCF. I have zero doubt about it's authenticity. To a prospective buyer one day, however, that's just another story. Authenticated on eBay it's probably a $400-$500 card. Raw though, I'd just seem like idiot or someone with something to hide.
