<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1095838, member: 19065"]Going by the reasons you give, I don't understand how a couple of extra characters printed on the label changes your mind about leaving them in the slabs or not<i>, </i>let alone how does opting for the capsules make the purpose of protection any different than the coins being left in "ungraded" slabs. If you bought the A-Mark slabbed BU FS coins in PCGS plastic, then you have already paid for more than adequate conservation/protection of the coins. To go out and reverse that, risking damage to your coins in the process of 'cracking', then to buy more capsules doesn't make a lot of financial sense. The Air-Tites.com capsules you are buying for these may not even be as air tight as the PCGS slabs are so you are essentially taking your risks with conservation in the process of electing this route. If you want the coins raw, then you should buy them that way on the secondary market if you cannot get them from the APs who sell them raw. If you want a specific coin at a particular grade provided by a TPG's evaluation, then you should buy them on the secondary market at the grades you seek.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
