I’m in your camp, I would pay more for an punched card but I won’t necessarily turn down an item strictly cause its unpunched. I feels more factory fresh if its unpunched lol!
I dont really hunt down unpunched pieces. If I happen to come across an unpunched piece I pick it up if its something I need. I dont really place more of a value on unpunched pieces. The only real thing I wanted uniform with my moc Thundercats figs was the series 3 figs had to have the starburst new sticker. I had them all like that until I sold my afa70 lynxo to get money for some production piece (and had the mindset eh no big deal lynxo is for sale all the time, Im kicking myself cause as soon as I sold mine lynxo stopped being for sale all the time and I wasn’t going to pay a jacked up price for him, which is what is happening now).
BTW indiabluesplit these polls of yours I find pretty interesting
I only have 1 unpunched moc. I didn’t even noticed when i purchased it, because the pics where really bad. I really proud of my unpunched Playful Mandrillo C9 condition !!!
