<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leadfoot, post: 324558, member: 2972&quot;]I think you have a good point.&nbsp; However, in a market, perception IS reality.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Furthermore, to suggest that someone like SGS is on-par in terms of consistency would be incorrect in my opinion.&nbsp; That&#039;s not addressing at all the different standard that they employ, and if you will recall a few posts I made on the gold dollar thread, it is not the standard they use, but the consistency of how that standard that is applied that is important.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I think a large part of the value that PCGS (and NGC) coins have in the marketplace is marketing-induced, to suggest that PCGS/NGC are less consistent than SGS, NTC, and others would be a mistake.</p><p><br /></p><p>All that said, I agree 100% with your last paragraph, and that was the point I was trying to make to the OP, but I also recognize the rights of other to value and pay for slabs if they so choose.&nbsp; Just do it with your eyes open, that&#039;s all.</p><p><br /></p><p>Respectfully...Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
