<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 159634, member: 3011&quot;]It&#039;s an interesting situation because right now the TPG&#039;s have more market power than their customers, so things won&#039;t change until something happens to disturb the market.&nbsp; It&#039;s a little like the auto industry.&nbsp; The &quot;Big Three&quot; US automakers [the equivalent of PCGS, NGC, ICG and ANACS in the coin industry] were able to market the same product to the public and record fairly large profits until the Japanese arrived on the scene and offered what the public really wanted.&nbsp; This will eventually happen to the TPG industry too, but nobody can predict when or under what circumstances it will occur.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe some entrepreneur out there will read some of these threads and recognize an unfulfilled need for a grading company with highly skilled consistent graders who will get rid of the bodybag excuse for not providing the service the customer paid for.&nbsp; I suspect there is a huge market out there for less than perfect coins as long as they are properly classified and discounted in price.&nbsp; I know a lot of collectors won&#039;t touch them, but there is no reason to think that everyone else in the world thinks the same way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
