To me, breaking a slab to fill an album slot is some sort of hole-filling fixation disorder. There must be a name for it.


The proper term for this is "collecting".

@Petespockets55 That is one heck of a graveyard.


That is the full graveyard.

95% of my collection was assembled raw, so in my case, I didn't want to have most of my collection in albums and then a few slabs off to the side. Just my personal preference.

I do have some coins in slabs as well - either too expensive to break out like my 09-S VDB or stand alone coins where I have a suitable duplicate to put into an album if applicable.

I feel the same. While I have not cracked any TPG slabs yet, I do have a box of OGP lenses that can relate.
