What is next in 21st century card collecting

Posted By: barrysloate

If anyone is impressed by the incredible growth in this hobby over the past decade, it is due primarily to the advent of professional grading. Take that out of the equation, and go back to the days of raw only, and the value of baseball cards would plummet.

Some might prefer that, others may not. But we would never have witnessed this dramatic growth without the slab. I stopped fighting it a long time ago.
