<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 324841, member: 4626"]OK like I said in the other thread on a similar topic we're just going to have to agree to disagree. A third opinion is purely subjective and is worth no more than the first two. I firmly believe the TPGs have caused way more problems than they've solved and the hobby would be better off without them. If they went away it would force people to educate themselves about the coins they buy and the only harm would be to those unwilling or unable to do so, who frankly shouldn't be in the hobby in the first place. It would also eliminate most of those who see purchasing of coins as merely an investment, thus allowing the prices to drop to more reasonable levels for true collectors who want to collect coins purely for the sake of doing so.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can just barely remember the way things were... I joined the hobby when the slabs were a brand new thing and never saw the necessity despite those trying to convince me otherwise. I still don't.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
