I'm a binder guy so I bust out any graded cards I need for the sets I'm trying to complete..Mantle, Mays, whoever. If I buy a graded card as a 'stand-alone' collectible, star cards from sets I'll never chase and/or fragile pre-war cards, I leave them in the case.

Does it cost me in terms of the market value of the cards? Sure, but I enjoy paging thru my sets more than anything.
