</title><link>http://www.andersonvalleypost.com/news/2007/jan/02/graded-cards-are-staple/?partner=RSS</link><description>Dear Babe: First, I hate the (increasingly common) trend of there being
tables at (increasingly rare) card shows full of graded
and slabbed cards with no prices on them. Who are the
people buying these cards? What prices are they typically
paying for them? I don’t like slabbed cards in the first
place. I can’t imagine buying them, let alone when you
have to ask the seller how much they cost. What is the purpose
of buying slabbed cards? Can’t a collector tell the
quality of a card without having a third party do it for
them? I’d be interested to hear from other readers on this. I
honestly don’t get it.
