As a longer time collector and seeing so many fakes and reprints out there, my collecting views have turned to graded only cards for purchased of high priced cards. For me that's All Mantles, 50's major stars, 63 rose and also my '58 jimmy brown to name a few.
I like filling in my sets with cards that never were, i.e. the Lemke items, but I just can't swallow the risk of buying a Mantle under the raw title of "you judge" or "All sales final" or "sold under a could be reprint" theme. I also look at feedback to guide me with the moderately expense 50's cards.

On another front, where does the Ohio guy with 98.8-99.1% feedback get all his cards? He's always out there with lots and stars, albeit I have to say that most look 1 to 1.5x grades too high. But did buy a graded maris and it was fine.

Comments on either welcome.
