Graded card holders
Does anybody know how difficult it is to remove a graded card from its sealed holder, and how to best go about it? I only collect raw cards and there is a particular card I am looking for that is only available graded. The grade isn't high enough to warrant keeping it slabbed, but is good enough that I would like it in its raw condition. Any input would be appreciated.
I collect Dany Heatley, Nicklas Backstrom, all Red Wings and most Yankees.

There are youtube videos out there for each company's graded card cases. I watched a video on how to break a PSA case and I was able to do it just fine without damaging the card.

It has been done by people wanting a new grade, which shows how reliable and consistent the grading companies are.
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.
