Is slabbing still the move in 2025?

Honestly, unless you're chasing a gem mint 10 to lock in that massive value, I'm finding raw copies are where the real fun is at lately. The grading fees are still steep, so I'm mostly just sticking to high-end binder sets for my personal collection right now.

I’m totally with you, the grading costs just aren't worth it for mid-tier stuff anymore. Nothing beats flipping through a clean binder anyway! binders > slabs 📁

Totally agree, the turnaround times and fees just aren't worth it for mid-tier stuff anymore. I’ve been prioritizing premium binder pages lately too, it's way more satisfying to actually flip through the collection. 🃏
