that's why I said "IF" & given how cards are produced now - a - days there's a really good chance that every card will grade at least a 9 & besides the registry will tell him the overall GPA of his graded set & whichever cards don't grade a 9 he could sell on ebay to raise cash to buy a higher graded version of that card to help lessen the out of pocket cost.

Oh. Okay, then. I thought that you meant older cards.
