<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Notaphylic_C, post: 8586804, member: 130786&quot;]- I agree. It is pretty ludicrous how the bay is so strict with their pool of &quot;acceptable graders&quot; &amp; yet allow shady sellers to re-list items with clear shill bidding (to drum up attention), turn a blind eye to mislabelled items,&nbsp; reproductions, altered bogus numismatic fakes, manufactured holders,&nbsp; etc. They don&#039;t police their marketplace&nbsp; well enough (IMO) or we wouldn&#039;t see constant complaints on so many forums.</p><p><br /></p><p>PLUS:</p><p>There are other certifiers out there &amp; I think the competition for TPG should persist to keep a big company like <b>PMG</b> on their toes.&nbsp; I like that there is <b>PCGS</b>, <b>Legacy</b> &amp; my favourite is <b>BCS</b> (Banknote Certification Services) from Canada. Unfortunately, <b>BCS</b> only certifies Canadian notes but he is strict/conservative &amp; I think a lot of conservative collectors are very pleased that he&#039;s here providing an accessible service in the TPG industry.&nbsp; What happened with PCGS, Stacks-Bowers &amp; Jason Bradford should not destroy or put competitors out of business.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
