I think high quality images would help with selling raw. I assume you can see all the flaws, including wrinkles in high grade images.

Wrinkles and creases quite often do not show up, even under magnification. So high quality images, accompanied by decent descriptions would be ideal.

I agree that a raw-only AH with detailed descriptions and hi-res scans would be great.

But collectors have grown accustomed to only high end in slabs. In order to get high dollar cards an AH has to sell slabs unfortunately.

I do sell a lot of raw, but I just don't think I'd survive if I went raw only. Look at it this way. I'd be excluding the opportunity to auction what 90% of all cards over $1,000?

I am listening to the thoughts shared here though!

Exactly. Without graded cards you would almost always be in the lower dollar categories. Unfortunately grading is a must and the current grading companies have been shown to be anything but consistent or trustworthy. Transparency, communication, service and trustworthiness are always important.
