Need some advise please 0

[Master Alarcon]

Hello every body, Master Alarcon here again with another post.

I need help deciding what to do with a collection of binders that I have, I want to know if it is worth taking the cards out of the binders and get them in to slabs or maybe it's better to leave then on the binders.

Here are some pics: 

 

Thanks in advance for any advise.

you will have to do some research by going to eBay completed sales lists to find out which ones have value

and then if you have a group of valuable ones that are in real nice condition or a few individual ones worth good money then it would be worth sending them off and getting them graded 

imo.

That Egyptian-looking binder is super cool.

I have the Neo 2 folder and I love it.  I've considered grading the Typhlosion, but I kinda like having the binder complete.  There's 1-2 cards in each of those that do very well if you get high grades, but that's really just if you're looking to sell them.  I've seen complete sets graded out and sold, but the price was definitely driven by the top card(s) and I doubt you get a great ROI on grading the less desirables.  You gotta think that the binder page they include with that isn't exactly archival quality, so cards that that Charizard and Happy Birthday Pikachu might need to be set aside in something a little more protective, as the years pile up.

I have some of these same binders.  I too was considering pulling out the valuable cards, and sending them in for grading.  I just have not pulled the trigger yet. 

I think you can make more money grading and selling the cards individually, but like everyone else has said, it ruins the coolness of the binder.  It's a really tough call.  Good Luck!

I just love the way they look on the binder, I wish there was a way to preserve the hole thing.
