I listed a Tracy McGrady card on Ebay I found going through my cards. (I need the money.)
Did I screw up by not getting it graded? The card looks just like when I pulled it. I'm not even sure I identified it properly.
I also came across a Topps T-205 buyback. It is still encased. I compared it to other 205's and it is at least a 5. Should I cut it out and get it graded or would it sell for more in the casing? If I take it out of the casing would it have to be graded? Or would people believe that it is legit? Any advice would be appreciated.

Grading the McGrady probably wouldn't have boosted the value very much unless it came back like a BGS 9.5 or higher and even then I don't the boost should have been that significant for a non rookie card.

As for the buyback I'm pretty sure it would have more value as the buyback though I guess it would depend on what year and set the buyback is from. Some sets are more collectible than others.
