Codebreaker autos - should I grade them?

poppudaimadochi · Nov 5, 2012

Hi guys, need some opinion here: I'm trying to move the cards below, do you think I should have them BGS graded? Or that it doesn't matter since they're 1/1's?

Thanks for your input!!

Still in awe of those Frenchie...and the 2012 ones will be so much better! I think getting them graded may be a loss of money for you. In my opinion it would not raise the value at all, and I think anyone that would want one would prefer it not in a BGS. My thoughts are for a Felix Hernandez 2012...I already have the base and the red, and if I were to somehow land the 1/1 codebreaker it would be great! If that codebreaker was in a BGS or PSA slab I would hate how it would look both scans wise as well as in my PC next to the other two. Wouldn't stop me from going after it of course, but then I would feel obligated to do the same slabs for the other two and risk a different grade.

As they're 1/1s it doesn't matter unless, of course, one is collecting slabs, wants the slab for protection. However the 'authentic' label is better than a numerical grade here IMO.

Don't grade, I personally can't see a price increase.

Keep the cards as is and maximize any $$$ you make from the sales. Slabbing won't do a thing for these.

I agree. Further, since they're already in protectors, what's being graded - the internal card or the protector full size card?

I don't see a point.

BGS grades the holder, not the mini-card that is encased.
