Graded or Non-Graded?

theplane · 04-04-2011, 10:05 PM

Hey guys, this is just a random question. When you buy your cards, or after pulling especially nice ones, do you prefer to have them graded or stuck in toploaders? Or, maybe it doesn't matter to you?

Personally, I don't like graded cards. I find that they take up space, and are not as easy to display.

Just my opinion

Graded.

Much better for resale.

I've never gotten anything graded; I just stick to toploaders and penny sleeves.

It doesnt matter to me, but I prefer a gold 9.5 slab over raw.

I prefer to collect non-graded. Anything that I have though goes into one touch magnetic holders regardless of whether I plan to keep it or resell it later on. Though, I always try to get cards that have clean autos and are nicely centered.
