I'm trying to work out a deal for a raw card that I want, and I have offered around $200 worth of graded cards (including an 84 Fleer Ryan PSA 10, an 88 Fleer PSA 10, and an 86 Topps Ryan PSA 9) for a raw card worth around $100. I figured I was giving the dealer a great deal with cards he can easily make a profit on, and I got this email in return:

We deal with next to zero for graded cards, personally I think it's a
horrible fad that is terrbile for the hobby. Graded rookie cards
maybe, anything else, we wouldn't be interested in.

I don't understand this guy - I know some dealers are averse to graded cards, but jeezy peezy

    Let him rot on the dustbin of innovation.

    Added: The only dealers that say this are the ones who over grade their inventory.

    They probaly compared a few PSA 8's to their stock and found out their cards were not as special as they had thought.

    Loves me some shiny!

    that's an easy one............

    ........put him on your "Don't deal with " list.

    If desperate to have this card from this dealer, just ebay'em Ryans and go from there.

    BOTR

    PS) One thing you need to remember is that graded cards are a horrible fad. Just ask Mr. Mint !

    Jeff... he sounds like a 20th Century Dunce who hasn't realized that you can sell things on that little TV-thingy he plays Pong on... Why don't you give him 10% cash to hold it, sell your stuff on eBay, then buy the card cash as you stick your tongue out at him... you never know, you might actually come out ahead!

    By the way, what is the card, perhaps I could buy it for you!! image

    You already have it, Keith. It's an ultra rare Venezuelan Finest Refractor Elite Dominator card numbered 0/0.

    lol.. he probably thinks your 84 Fleer Ryan is worth $4.00, 86 Topps $3.00 and 88 Fleer $2.00 (or whatever Beckett says).. poor guy.. what $100 raw card are you wanting? i doubt i have it, but if i did i'd probably trade you..
