<p>[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 25683158, member: 36248"]Circling back to the op's original question and statement, regardless of anyone's personal opinion or experiences here, I certainly would strongly recommend you listen to whatever Great Collection's rep recommends to you. They are not doing it to line PCGS pockets by upselling unsuspecting cosigners. They're doing it because it's what's best for you and for them based on the material you are trying to sell. It might be based on the value that will be squeezed from the coins or it could be based on timing depending on if you ask them to liquidate them and the most efficient manner. I suspect it's based on several variables, but ultimately it's a simple decision based on trust. </p><p><br /></p><p>Do you trust Great Collections to give you good advice? </p><p><br /></p><p>I have personally never seen anyone make a post on any forum that was highly Negative about Great Collections.

[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 25683158, member: 36248"]Circling back to the op's original question and statement, regardless of anyone's personal opinion or experiences here, I certainly would strongly recommend you listen to whatever Great Collection's rep recommends to you. They are not doing it to line PCGS pockets by upselling unsuspecting cosigners. They're doing it because it's what's best for you and for them based on the material you are trying to sell. It might be based on the value that will be squeezed from the coins or it could be based on timing depending on if you ask them to liquidate them and the most efficient manner. I suspect it's based on several variables, but ultimately it's a simple decision based on trust. Do you trust Great Collections to give you good advice? I have personally never seen anyone make a post on any forum that was highly Negative about Great Collections. Every business, no matter how good, might have a little customer service problem here or there, but it's how you handle those situations that matters . To my knowledge, over more than a decade of dealing with GC, no one has ever questioned their character or reported anything that would tarnish their stellar reputation. That is enough for me to trust their judgment. And when I co-sign coins to them for the first time which I believe will be next year, I will go with whatever they recommended, Even if it might be counter to my own personal opinions about the coins. One final thought I have is that if you really are questioning the advice then I would recommend sending a personal email directly to Ian himself and pose any questions you might have for concerns and he will likely respond to you personally as he is done for many members, including me. Man, I can't seem to make a concise post to save my life. They all turn into novels... LOL[/QUOTE]
