[QUOTE="Silver Striker, post: 165285, member: 1745"][url]http://www.icgcoin.com/Default.aspx?tabid=751[/url] This was some interesting reading for me tonight. This is giving me some insight into my thinking regarding ICG and what they are doing for the industry. I am still looking at the grading services and while I am just touching the surface, I haven't read something this interesting from others yet. This might just make me change my opinon of ICG after the debacle over their grading and slabbing of casino chips. Other than I really like the ANACS holder, I am now thinking about placing ICG in the top 3 on my list now. However, I still have concerns regarding their guarantee which I haven't checked to see if they've changed it from what I recall. As far as ANA and this "endorsing" of a grading service, I FEEL (and I am not a member of ANA) that it should have strict requirements in place for such endorsements and NOT repeat NOT be paid a dime for such endorsements. Also that there be no limit on the number of endorsements if the company can show that it meets all of the ANA's requirements for that endorsement. After all, they are more or less assisting the collector in making these endorsements and as a collector, if I were a member of ANA, I wouldn't be appreciative of endorsements that are paid for. After all isn't the ANA a NON PROFIT orginization? And they already have an "Official Grading Service of the ANA", NGC! Do I see some GREED here by the ANA?[/QUOTE]
