It begs the question, will grading company tap into this market more in 2023? Maybe $8 or $10 fees for cards valued under $100. I remember back in the early days of grading, people would grade anything, especially commons. Maybe we will be coming back to that era?
There is a certain cost of doing business. I am not sure an 8 dollar grading fee would make any financial sense for the TPGs. That is, unless they would be a loss leader (highly doubtful).
