I would suggest you resubmit the code with the correct attributions and please don't all the original form where has the correct attribution and show them that they made the mistake but you would like it corrected and it should be corrected at no cost From the hobby center and think tank of MTS.LLC
Funny thing is after about a week of them being sent to PCGS I had a weird feeling that might happen,that they wouldn't give it the DD,because I didn't list it on the original form.I do online submissions because they are easier. Anyway,I talked to Ashley and the coin is going through the graders again for the variety attribution. So we will see what happens,hopefully in a few days time.
I split this up to be clear. For this one, you're right, again. But if you accept their "rules." Which are what? They don't want to think. If they have to think, we have to pay extra for it. So, you want a PCGS grade? You're getting a look grade. You're not getting a grade with any thought behind it, and let's quit kidding ourselves we are. We're getting a monkey grade. There's where I'm coming from when I say "inept." Taking this one, to hell with them. The ones supporting PCGS start supporting IGC, e.g., and you watch, everybody starts following the leader, the trending, and ICG becomes the top TPG. There ought to come a point where the consumer says, "Enough of this crap," instead of, "Oh, that's their rule." Stick their rule. Vote it with your pocketbook. They can't attribute a plain-on-the-face-of-the-coin DDO, and they're calling themselves "Professional" coin graders, that's what the "P" stands for? Stick it. Enough of us say that, they'll be attributing these in no time, free of charge, you watch and see. They only pull this crap on us because we're stupid, we go along with it, and they know it, all the way to their bank.
Everybody eats fries with their cheeseburger, but you don't get fries at McDonald's unless you order them. PCGS would be out of business if they tried to attribute every coin they get at the price they charge. It wouldn't even cover the grader/attributor's wage.
Do you see how you just slipped away from the issue to justify yourself, or didn't you catch that? Who said, "attribute every coin?" Oh, that's right, you said it. Who made attributing "every coin" the issue? Oh, that's right, again, you did. Make the issue any coin where the attribution is plain on the face of the coin, such as the 1955 DDO. The monkey graders there attribute those at no extra charge because they don't want to be laughed out of the business, just like they're being laughed at, here, on this coin. There are two kinds of people in this world, never forget: the kind that fights the idea of being pushed around, and the other kind.
Did you fail to catch the already-made point that there is a list of varieties (for each TPG) that they automatically attribute, or are you just moving the goalposts?
Screw that list. This is obvious. When they're this obvious, the TPGs should be attributing them on the slab. When they're not, that's their choice. It's also their definition of "professional." Isn't it?
No, it's not. Their definition (particularly PCGS, a publicly-held company) is, "whatever best serves the shareholder tail wagging the dog." We don't disagree that clearly, just regarding what rubber should meet the road and what rubber does. And I don't think we disagree on that.
The attribution not being on the label is not evidence of any of what you are hoping it is. No it wouldn't. The monetary sale gap between the top two and the other two has been widening not closing. I don't see anyone laughing at them from this, other than you who has made a ton of incorrect assumptions. Several people have pointed out to you it needed to be paid for to be on the label.
It's evidence they're blind in one eye and don't happen to see very well out of the other eye. As it stands before the migration. Are you seriously making the case they're better graders? They're better marketers, not graders. They've got you thinking they're better graders, don't they? The prosecution rests. And that's good enough for you, because you're easy.
No it isn't. You hate them and are looking for any excuse to scream from the rooftop about them. The service wasn't paid for by the OP as they had mentioned, therefore it was not on the label period. All of your conclusions about them being incapable or blind is frankly nothing but nonsense. Go make a casual appointment with your Dr. When you get there tell them you want a full physical but will only pay for the casual checkup fee. Are you going to start screaming from the rooftops about how your Dr can't do medicine and that we should all just start using gym trainers as Drs instead when they refuse to provide services for free for you? Another real strong factually based argument from you.
Just keep flaming me. That's all you got... They say analogies are a poor man's reasoning. This is a textbook example of it. Your doctor in any appointment misses an obvious health condition, he or she's in trouble. Professional [...don't make me laugh] Coin Grading Services misses an obvious DDO, and you're making excuses for them from here to China. Flame on, I'm fireproof...
I like to imagine the conversation in the grading room when this happens. "Did they pay $15 for the attribution?" "Nope" "Okie Dokie" ...the graders hafta see it when they are examining a coin. I'm kind of surprised they don't contact the customer to suggest attribution since it would mean more $$s in their pockets... but then some would criticize them for being misers.
I really don't know how to make this any clearer or simpler for you. The attribution not being on the label when attribution service was not paid for is in no way shape or form any evidence of anything being missed.
I don't know how else to put it other than baseball21's post. ..If you don't pay, you don't get the attribution grade. It doesn't matter how obvious it is. If you have a Washington Quarter type B (a completely different reverse) but you don't pay $15 for attribution, they don't attribute it. I'm sure some people fore-go attributions on coins that are obvious. Why pay the extra $15 + increase in price guide value 1% for private enjoyment or if coin will gain variety premium without attribution?
Then I misunderstood. This is where you and he misunderstand. I get what their rule is. I don't need to hear it repeated over and over.
Why do you keep calling it incompetence than and saying that they are inescapable and have incompetence graders that can't think who missed that it was a DDO ect when no evidence has been presented to support that claim?
We'll take judicial notice of it from the fact that the only talent they need to do their job is to look at something and communicate to us how eye-appealing it is to them.
