Do you grade ALL of your PC Cards?

Yes and no. Don't you love the ambiguity?? LOL

Yes - I have the entire 2014 Prizm Jordy Nelson rainbow, both main set and the Hands Team inserts, and I had all of them graded including the low end variations. The Red Prizm came out a 7, ten were 9s (slightly off centered specifically), eight 11s (including both Finites), three 8s (the Hands Team base, Prizms, and Gold, all of which had some edge issues I didn't see before grading them, thanks to the die machine not cutting cleanly). I have also gotten alternates for some of them, all from SGC and 10s, for the Red, Blue, Red Power, and have a copy of the Purple that I think will get a 10 there at the moment (grade should pop any day now).

Now, I also have over 9000 other cards in my Packers PC, and most of them are not graded. I have a few that are, mainly because I purchased them graded, and a few I've decided to sell, although those aren't selling, so I may end up pulling those and putting them back in the collection. I have a LOT of base cards from the late 80s up through the 2010s, and a lot of nice stuff that are of players who did nothing in the league. Sure, I have a 2012 Crown Royale Black 1/1, but it's of Datone Jones. I have a bunch of low numbered autos and inserts from 2013, but they are mostly of Johnathan Franklin. I don't think anyone in their right mind would grade 9000 cards at a cost of 180,000 (not even including shipping) when you'd lose most of that money in the process.
