Is slabbing still the move for modern grails in 2025?

Honestly, the pop report inflation is wild right now, but nothing beats the feeling of seeing a fresh Gem Mint 10 label on a chase card. If you're holding long-term, slabbing is still king for liquidity, but be picky with your raw inventory or you'll just be burning cash on sub-grades.

Totally agree, the grading fees really add up if you aren't selective. I only slab the absolute clear-cut tens now to keep my margins from getting eaten alive. 📈

Totally agree, you've really got to curate what you send in now or the grading fees eat all your profit. Nothing beats the peace of mind of a slab for the high-end stuff though. 📈
