Looking for a PCGS authorized dealer

I live in the middle of nowhere and wanted to send a couple of coins off to PCGS instead of driving 4 hours to my nearest dealer I was wondering if there are any authorized dealers on the forums that would be interested.

PM Mark, I'm sure he'll respond, and I'm equally sure that he will either do it for you or make a recommendation as to who to contact. He will steer you right.

Hope this helps...Mike

p.s. I like your avatar.

Go to PCGS website and join the collector's club. Then you can submit coins directly to PCGS without going through a dealer.

If you join the ANA you can submit to NGC w/o going through a dealer and w/o even joining NGC.

I cant get past the having to buy something I don't want just for the pivlige to pay again to have them grade my coin.

I also collect baseball cards. the main grading services for card's don't require a membership they do offer discounts for joining clubs thou.

Don't worry about it. Mark's very approachable. If he treats you badly (which he won't), I'll slap him around next time I see him.

I agree! Why do I have to pay you JUST to be ABLE to pay you!? seems silly to me but so be it I guess. They have what we want, just gotta suck it up and pay, its only about 50$

That's the problem for me $50 is a bit of money im the sole income for a family of 4 with a newborn and a 2 year old my coin budget is thin. That $50 is a serous deterrent for me.
