Message:: [QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1791495, member: 66"]Typically at the shows you will be speaking with the clerical staff NOT the graders. Even if they do have some of the graders there, most of them are GRADERS not variety specialists. And even if they are variety people they may not be experts in the series you need. So the chance of getting a good answer at the TPG tables may not be as good as getting a good answer here. Now if was submitted at the show with a variety attribution request so they could take it back to the offices where their references are and they could have the time to study it and maybe send it out to a couple expert consultants, then you might get a good answer.  Or you may just get back "This isn't a variety we recognize for slabbing."[/QUOTE]
