At first I was excited, but the guidelines make it seem less appealing. You get one coin graded for free if you submit four, but the most you can put on a submission is four coins. Since every submission has a ten dollar handling fee, your net savings is basically ten dollars if you do economy. Great, ten dollars off every four coins. I had like forty of them ready to go but now I don't know if it's worth it.
I called about it and the customer service rep told me I can send in more than 4, as many as I want, and I'll get 1 freebie. So that's what I did. Haven't gotten them back yet. They've only been there a week.
The way I read it is you have to use a different submission form, which includes a ten dollar handling fee each time, but you can combine shipping. Did you just put all the coins on one form?
I just called them and they said you can submit as many coins as you like on one submission, but you only get one coin graded for free per submission. Also, you can only send three submission forms total for the special. So, basically you get up to three coins graded for free if you grade 12 coins and pay three handling charges, but you can combine shipping. Like I said, it doesn't sound so special.
It works out for me, because I usually only send about 1 order per month, so I can naturally spread mine out anyway. This way it's like I get a little discount.
