[QUOTE="jimmy_goodfella, post: 14844, member: 919"]ND i aint blaming dalers its there buisness thy have to make a living like everyone. but when people cant even agree what a coin grade is there is something stinking about this hobby. when eye apeal is counted into the grade it completely removes the science from the product. As i said im my personal opinion there should be about 6 grades only then you can all haggle over eye apeal within that grade,this way its so much easier for all to learn and so much easier to set a price and prevents all this crazyness about if omething is a ms65 or ms70 when most of diffrence is just eye appeal. call it mint state bcause of soley the condition/luster then go haggle on price how much the eye appeal is worth. This would save everyone millions on grading services,it would prevent most rip offs,it would bring lots more people into the hobby as they ewould feel they have a fair chance of learning about grades themselves, thus it would actually increase prices with more demand. i think so many are put off because they cannot learn the silly grading system that is around. to re-iterate remove eye appeal from grading alltogeher but sell your coin within its grade on eye appeal[/QUOTE]
