This would the first confirmed case of such an event I have ever heard of - with any of the top TPG's. Have you told ANACS about it ? And if so what was their response ? Because if you haven't I'm going to. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   04-09-2006, 12:58 PM   #32 (permalink) Charlie32 Coin Collector     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Edmond OK Posts: 1,176 Nope, I haven't talked with ANACS yet. I am going to take it and a few other coins to the CSNS show and see what ANACS has to say.

Charlie Would it be able to fool a collector or are there any signs of replacement?   04-09-2006, 04:01 PM   #36 (permalink) Charlie32 Coin Collector     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Edmond OK Posts: 1,176 Quote: Originally Posted by 09S-V.D.B Would it be able to fool a collector or are there any signs of replacement? If you looked at the edge closely, you could tell that it had been opened.

They have now had my package 7 business days, and my fiance today was told that it would probably be about 4 days before they even get to the 5 day packages. I will never use these people ever again, and in fact I hope PCGS and NGC put them out of business.   04-10-2006, 03:16 PM   #38 (permalink) AnemicOak Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: MN Posts: 875 Quote: Originally Posted by zaneman I will never use ANACS ever again.

Just curious, because it sounds like they all take their own sweet time even when they say it'll be fast turnaround. Are they offering to make up for the delay in any way? Seems to me they should. __________________ ~Brian My Coins | My Notgeld | My Currency   04-10-2006, 03:24 PM   #39 (permalink) zaneman Moderator     Join Date: Aug 2005 Posts: 2,745 SGS, ICC, NTC, anyplace would have been better I am sure. I would rather send my coins to SGS at this point than ANACS.   04-10-2006, 03:28 PM   #40 (permalink) zaneman Moderator     Join Date: Aug 2005 Posts: 2,745 Part of the reason I am annoyed, is they have a coin that is worth between 2-3k, and I have to move to California, and need to sell it with some other stuff in order to move.   04-10-2006, 03:50 PM   #41 (permalink) Farstaff Supporter**     Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: Sterling,VA Posts: 114 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by zaneman I will never use ANACS ever again.

I doubt PCGS or NGC will put them out of business since their customer service leaves a lot to be desired also at times. I personally have always received better service with ANACS. __________________ WINS #595 ANA R 3121218 If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.

Ahem* Guess who just got hired at PCGS? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I flew out for my interview yesterday, and was hired for the apprentice grading position. I'll be moving to California and starting work in June! Looks like you will get a chance to make that so! __________________ John Chance Favors The Prepared Mind   04-10-2006, 03:59 PM   #43 (permalink) zaneman Moderator     Join Date: Aug 2005 Posts: 2,745 Quote: Originally Posted by Farstaff I am curious as to why were they sent to ANACS instead of PCGS or NGC to begin with?

My fiance sent the coins in, because she thought it would be better to go with cheaper service. I had to remind her that I am hired at PCGS, and she should be using them.   04-14-2006, 05:28 PM   #44 (permalink) Charlie32 Coin Collector     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Edmond OK Posts: 1,176 Update: I talked to James Taylor today and he said that he knew about how easy it was to open the new holders, and that it had been fixed.
