Is slabbing still the move for your high-end cardboard in 2025?

Honestly, unless you're chasing that elusive black label or PSA 10 gem mint, the raw market feels way more liquid right now. Don't get me wrong, a fresh slab looks sick in the PC, but the grading turnaround fees are really eating into the margins lately.

Spot on. Grading fees are getting brutal, so unless it's a guaranteed top grade, I’m sticking to high-end raw for the liquidity. 📈

Totally agree, the grading fees are getting out of hand and raw cards are moving way faster on the market right now. Unless it's a guaranteed high grade for the PC, I’ve been keeping everything in top-loaders lately. 📈
