Just got this in this morning. Unbelievable card…..Had to give up a lot to get it but I'm thinking in the end it will be worth it…..Now the question is should I grade it. Looks like a solid 9.5 to me.

Nice card. It's a one-of-one in an uncirculated case, why grade?

Great card. If it is in the uncirulated case, I much rather keep it in there...only bad things can happen if you take it out.

This.
Great card!
agreed about not taking it out of the uncirculated case.
again, i raise the question, though:
if these cases become an even more popular trend, when will beckett begin grading encased cards? will they take the condition of the top loader into account.
if i had one of these uncirculated cards. i would put it in about 75,000 team bags in case this ever becomes a "thing."

They do grade encased cards, but they take the card out. It happens with uncirculated cards.
Awesome card, OP.

Don't you dare grade it. Leave it be with all its beauty. Congrats. BEST Lillard card ever.

Card = Really really awesome!
Grading it = Really really bad idea. First yr Flawless.... keep it in that case.

Yeah I wouldn't even think about trying to grade that
Are you trying to resell it and that's why you want to grade it?

100% DO NOT take it out of the case. This is the best of the best Lillard you can find. A 9.5 will do nothing for its value. Keep that thing in multiple team bags (as someone else mentioned) so the case stays as clean as possible.
congrats!!!

WOW! That's a beautiful card! I'd leave it the way it is in the sealed Flawless case!
BTW if you need a Lillard NT to go with it, I have a nice one FS ;)

Very beautiful card! Well done sir and may we never see it listed on the bay again, that should be passed down for generations. Let's hope Portland can bring a championship or two to town in next 12 years or so, that would be tremendous.

I'm with the others, leave that baby in the case!
It looks like the top left corner on the front may be soft anyways.

+1.
If it doesn't get gold, it'll probably lessen the value of it if you decide to sell later on.
Congrats on the sick pickup!!

Thanks guys for the opinions and responses. I am gonna hold off on getting it graded.

None of the corners are soft…..It might be the angle of the pic that I took.

Maybe if you could get it graded at a show or something, I'd be nervous to mail that card out. I dunno if at a show it's only a raw card review or if they do the full case now. 9.5 would probably help in a resale, the cost of grading is nothing compared to the price of the card so you could just say not to put it in a bgs case unless it was a 9.5. A 10 would be something on it.

As we have discussed and as has been stated by many good members in here, if it's sealed, don't remove it under any circumstances. You can argue getting 9.5 or 10 is not even worth it. Many people would prefer it sealed ungraded and it's a 1/1, the value is whatever you say it is and a buyer is willing to pay.

2 words = Holy Grail
And we all know what you do with a Holy Grail right?
You bury it, hide it and make sure no one knows where it is for at least 2000 years.
Now that's how to build a reputation for this card. :)!

Phenomenal card, without question the best Lillard card out there. (Please no one bring up the Immaculate "STICKER Logoman", for christ sake)
There is absolutely no logical point to get a 1/1 graded, especially this one. Just think about it. There is only one of them and its already pre sealed.
