That was never a $250 dollar coin nor would it be raw. The whole without PCGS/CAC premise is completely faulty too. To use another analogy would you pay the same price for a car that has been certified as you would if it was just sold by a random guy? How about a house before or after inspection? It's not a perfect comparison but it is much the same. Having the TPG and CAC multiple expert certification for what is a beautiful toner allows it to reach it's value, whereas raw significant risk is built in that you account for just as you would with something that had never been inspected in other areas of life.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
