Grading

Personally, I have no use for grading.........for the most part. I do see some value to it, in the case of wanting to hedge your bet that the card is genuine, and not a reprint/forgery/counterfeit. Perfect example is the Rose RC...I just felt better knowing it was in a slab. (PSA) Obviously not a guarantee, but I feel it tilts the odds in your favor.
