Good point! I do however remember that one time when I was selling a bunch of vintage topps (1957-1970 topps) I went to a BIG TIME dealer in our hobby and was told “I can’t give you much for the raw cards because I have to factor in the time and effort it’s going to take me to grade these myself (this was way before the psa grading card boom) but if they were graded I could give you much more.” At that point that’s probably when I should of realized that in regards to resale value, graded gets more then raw (generally speaking) I think I just answered my own question!
