I do not like or have graded cards
Am I completely alone on this?
I've collected vintage cards for years and always crack open any graded cards (then placing in a sleeved top loader) if ever purchased. My reasons : 1) I don't like the large size and thickness of the slabs. It makes them difficult to store. 2) I don't like that the cards can not be touched if so desired. 3) I don't like the grading wording system. Example; owning a "poor" or "fair" Mickey Mantle. 4) I don't like the judging system. I often find that lower graded cards visually look better than higher graded cards. 5) Most importantly. I find that graded cards take away from the youthful enjoyment of the cards. It makes the cards into a business commodity instead of a family heirloom which is what they should be. I'm curious on any members thoughts on my view? Thank you. Last edited by Chuck9788; 10-16-2017 at 12:27 PM. |
