Id scan it but its outve commision right now.. any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated. thanks

was gonna put it on ebay unless someone wants to trade/buy it. give me some thoughts or offers!

I have noticed that grades payoff on either vintage or Autos.
They also give higher end collectors a degree of customer guarantee when buying or trading online.
If a card was going to sit in my PC forever I would never consider grading it.
But if you have high end you are looking to market... A 9 or up grade can send it's value through the roof.

Grading with me is like this -
BGS 8 -8.5 wont touch unless its a nice card and is less than a raw card is selling for. BGS 9 is basically what a pack pulled card should be so I'll pay a tiny bit over what I would pay for a raw card simply because I know its protected and the "damage" is already stated. A 9.5 I'll pay a little more for because its a better condition, slabbed and I know it wont deteriorate over time. A BGS 10 ...well I only own a couple and they do command a premium over a raw card simply because it is viewed as flawless.
PSA 10 see BGS 9.5, PSA 9 see BGS 8-8.5
BCCG - I have a TON of 10's but all were bought for less than what a raw card is selling for. BCCG is anywhere from a BGS 7-10 in my book. I've seen a few come back 7's mostly 8's and 9's and only a couple 9.5's.
So, to me, if you have a BCCG 10 its only extra value is the protection but I've heard even that isnt so great.
