Not seeing the card in person is also weird to me, an old-school collector not an investor, but even as an investor, I want to hold it and see it.
What will it cost you to actually remove a card from the vault? A handling fee to find it and a shipping fee? More?
Ugh...hate where the "hobby" is going sometimes.

What about cards getting lost, damaged, or stolen in the vault, swapped out, etc. How many times have you received a card, even slabbed, that had issues. Not receiving the card, you will have to trust them. I’m also an old-school collector, and getting older, so maybe I just don’t trust change.
