Message:: [QUOTE="spy88, post: 21071, member: 968"]Chris--- It's a well known fact that NGC is probably the toughest for step designation.  They require the steps to be riser to riser with no breaks of any kind.  Minor hits or nicks are usually allowed so long as they don't go all the way to the incuse of the step. As for grading, I think it's a toss-up on any given day.  I've seen Jeffs in both slabs that were "gift grades", i.e.  two or more points higher between what I thought they graded and what they actually had on the insert and visa versa.  You just don't know what grade you'll get til you get them back from either company. It's also generally accepted that PCGS FS Jeffs fetch higher prices for comparable grades.  It's only been about 7 months since NGC went to the 5FS and 6FS designations on the inserts, but I really think that the rolls will eventually switch with the series because of this.  Just a matter of time.[/QUOTE]
