[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 26515965, member: 4626"]Oh I poked around a bit more and, well... [MEDIA=youtube]UcnHu_VFgf0[/MEDIA] This is not promising, when the first result on YouTube has the word "scam" in the title lol. Self-slabber, definitely, and I've found Reddit threads about them going back as far as 2014. Treat any coins in their plastic as raw coins. Video above, if you don't have 10 minutes to watch it, notes that they tend to only have graded coins of relatively low value, and have a tendency to overgrade by any reasonable standard. Not as bad as SGS but still. As an example the person who made that video took one of the best looking coins he found in their holder, a 1968-S proof Kennedy half, that they graded PR-67... sent it to PCGS and they gave it PR-64 Cameo. $20 lesson on a coin not worth $20 but it made great content and hopefully he got his money back on the YouTube ad revenue.[/QUOTE]
