[QUOTE="gmarguli, post: 129322, member: 246"]It's not just the BS bodybags they like to hand out, it's the inconsistent grading that forces you to have to resubmit. While I don't really care for their slabs and think the intercept shield in unnecessary, I do agree that they get a bad rap, but do a decent job. I used to strongly dislike their grading, but over the past couple years they have tightened up to be more in line with the other services.

For circulated stuff, they have been dead on recently. I've been able to sell generic stuff in their slabs for decent money. Hold off on anything going to ANACS. They have a lot of work to do to get things in order before stuff should be submitted. They are way behind and a little disorganized right now. Put them on eBay in lots of 3. Start them at 1c and charge $8.10 for shipping (flat rate box). They'll bring around $8 each / $24 per auction. I sold a ton like this a while back. Yep, NGC no longers allows non-dealers to drop coins off in person. It was for security. Seems fair as they checkout the dealers, but anyone with $99 can join their club.[/QUOTE]
