PCGS Reslabbing

I received my MS67FB dime from HEritage today and the slab is seriously beat up and scratched. I'm searching the PCGS site for a reslabbing fee and found nothing. In fact, PCGS seems to make doing business with them such a PIA I'm suprised they stay in business. But I'm wondering if anyone knows how to get it reslabbed and if anyone can help me facilitate this process.

That plastic is pretty expensive isn't it? They're making a MINT...

 

PCGS will reholder it for $5 plus shipping.

 

I don't know what the plastic costs. some plastic cost a lot. Mylar-D products are not cheap.

Either way, this slab has been abused and I need to change it.

Good Luck.

$5 for reholder. Here's the link...

Personally, I've had good luck with PCGS. Excellent customer service, prompt replies. That said, the grading itself is a little slower than NGC or ANACS.

 

thats becuase they are always secong guessing themselves

 

Ah that's good. Now I need a club member to submit it for me, or it is much more than $5.

Ruben

 

Yep.

Plus there's the issue of insured postage there and back...much more than $5.

Check your local dealer. Maybe you can piggyback a shipment they're sending in, and keep your costs low. If you caught PCGS at a show, you could submit without paying postage... and if you're really lucky, they might reslab before the show ends.

 

you said you got the coin from heritage. was there a photo of the coin on their site when you made the purchase? if so maybe you have a beef with them instead?

 

Ruben,
Why don't you break the coin out of the slab, and get it re-graded, if you're going through all that trouble? If you send it to NGC, they might give the coin a better grade. Better yet, send it to SGS. You will be guaranteed an MS-70 DMPL. Ask Aiden to submit the coin to SGS....he absolutely LOVES that grading service, and I'm sure that he has an "IN" with the management of that TPG.
