    We have two complete sets of IHB's, one for each granddaughter. I will watch to see who the winner is. Good luck.

    I admit to cracking more then 1 segs slab.. and will say their grading was fairly accurate at least on the examples I've seen

    They’re also the toughest slabs to crack. Say what you will about their grading or reputation, but their capsules are among the best in the industry, in my opinion.

    Are you saying your foot technique is inadequate for that bad boy? ;)

    Mostly, though not entirely. The plastic in a SEGS slab flexes quite a bit before it cracks.

    PS- If anyone wonders what he meant by my “foot technique”, here you go. :)
