What helped make this card so valuable?....It was GRADED!!!!!

The chip community MUST modernize and abandon it's anti-slabbing stance.

Comic books, sportscards, autographs, high end coins; almost any graded collectible, has skyrocketed in value and desirability since the advent of slabbing. Graded items invite investors...investors strengthen the financial aspect of the hobby. A hobby that is not only fun, but has profit potential, is what will draw more participation, and more dollars.

And now is the perfect time!

2003-2010 saw the great poker boom where millions of teens & twenty somethings worldwide were gambling on-line and filling brick & mortar poker rooms. this demographic is now in their thirties and forties, with disposable income and memories ready to be kindled. **this demographic is used to slabbed items, they prefer it, and many will only buy/invest in such items.**
