Should grading companies archive/case reproductions?

[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 489965, member: 7379"] Well, grading exists for one reason, and one reason only; to make graders money. This would seem to be another blatant money grab from a previously untapped source. It shouldn't really surprise anyone, I suppose. However, I do have to wonder at the thought-process of someone who pays to have their reproduction item 'archived'. Yes, all MOCs look good in perspex cases, so if repro shite is your thing, why not buy some GW cases and display them in those? Paying someone else to seal a reproduction MOC in an archival case is insane. It's like having your Rover 100 serviced at a Ferrari dealership simply because you painted it red and stuck a picture of a horse on the front of it. If these people have that much cash they're desperate to part with, I have some magic beans I can sell them :roll: [/QUOTE]
