Totally agree. The only thing consistent is the inconsistency. I love subbing and grading some of my older size different 50s cards as I've mentioned here and its across the board both ways. As much as I like the aesthetics of owning graded cards, I will never, ever "invest" in a grade...it's a house built on sand.
That is a sweet Mays. Grading like that just open the can of worms where someone may pay a 2 price, pop it out, and sell for much much more as someone will see the hope of a 5 or better. Although I am pretty certain as good as this card looks it will sell for more than a 2...so whats the point of the grade? Just so glad my collection is not grade based.
