The Argument For Collecting Low Grade Vintage Cards- Which Grade Is Best?
While investors focus their attention acquiring high grade and high quality vintage cards, many collectors are content buying up lower grades. "Buy the card, not the grade" is such a common comment from true collectors. "The key is having the card, condition is secondary" is another phrase you're likely to hear from a true collector. Personally, as a collector myself, I totally agree with both of these comments and have plenty of lower grade slabs myself. The question, however, is WHICH of the lower grade slabs should collectors be targeting to get the most bang for their collector buck? In this video, I will make the argument as to why each of the grades of 1 through 4 are the best grade to target, ultimately wondering...what do other collectors think? I look forward to hearing your comments and opinions.
