I wanted to make an unsolicited comment about MP Grading.
I have slowly but surely been sending my entire collection to MP Grading.
I think its is a wonderful service. They have been professionally grading
and evaluating my collection. In this post Haggard era of horror, this is
a very comforting thing to do. I see some real benefits to this program.
There is some inconvenience and some minor costs, but they are far
outweighed by the benefits.
Some of the benefits I see are:
1. I have the assurance that my cards and posters are truly legitimate.
2. They give you a professional looking certificate for each card showing
the grade.
3. I have found that with some sellers grades vary, depending upon the
person doing the grading. This MP Grading system will take much of the
subjectivity out of the system. As a buyer, I would much rather purchase a
card that they have graded, as it is consistent, not subject to the whim of
the seller.
4. They take a very good photo of each card or poster.
5. As a seller, I can sell a card grading it with confidence, as I just
use the grade that MP Grading has given it. I believe I am getting better
prices selling cards that they have graded. Buyers can be confident.
Especially for me, as I was associated with Haggard. Buyers have no fear.
6. I often worry about what would happen if there was ever a fire or a
theft. MP Grading provides a secondary source of verification should I
ever need it with my insurance company. As a matter of fact, I know Four
Color Comics experienced this very thing.
7. I like the fact that my cards are not sealed like cgc cards. I want my
cards out for displaying.
Overall, I think it is wonderful what MP Grading is doing for our hobby.
If everyone got on board, our hobby would be a better, safer, more
professional hobby. I think that would raise our values.
Anyway, I am very impressed with what MP Grading is doing for our hobby. I
encourage each and every collector and dealer to get on board. Like I
said, Todd has no idea I am sending this out. It is truly from the heart.
