100 percent leave it in the slab if you want to maintain value.

Just like I saw. Card is bent at two locations and has numerous scratches on front.

This card was graded a long time ago. Pretty much any cert that begins with a 0 or a 1 is going to be full two grades high when measured against today's standards. This is just another example in a long line of these slabs. Would grade as a 4 today.

So how much does it have to be worth before it's worth doing the job right?

^^^ One of the biggest problems "we" have in society, from major corporations to kids flipping burgers.

Every job is worth doing right. If it's not "worth it" to do it right they need to ___ off to some other job.

I think his point was that it was ridiculous to grade this card in this condition in the first place. It's a 1960 Topps Common in Vg-Exmt Shape, no need to grade this. Oh wait yes there is....Again PSA Registry Dominates this Business.

Would have only been vg+ before grading came along. Unless it was in a flea market, then more like "mint except for that corner"
