Cello vs wax

In everyones experience which do you think has the better quality cards as far as corner or edge damage goes? Or does it even matter? I know with wax sometimes comes gum problems but is there a drawback to cello?
thanks

    I have had some great experience with late 70's wax but I am still partial to RACK PACKS ! Cellos are often wrapped very tightly and are prone to corner dings.

    It's a close call it kinda depends on how they were stored, how tight the cello was wrapped and some other things. I think you could get some wax better than cello's and some cello better than wax.

    I dislike Cellos. They can kill the corners and they likely have been looked through more often than wax because you could see the top and bottom card. With all the movement of the packs can be tough on the corners too.

    A like rack then wax. I would even buy vending over cellos because I thnk the quility is similar and the value is better.

    Rack, then wax is correct.

    Then vending, and last would be cellos...in my experience opening, and then grading, cellos provide your worst shot at quality cards.
