<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rugen, post: 93663, member: 422&quot;]Thanks to everyone for the replies.&nbsp; I still would always worry about getting my coins back.&nbsp; How could you ever prove such a thing.&nbsp; There really should be a way we as collectors could check up on these people.&nbsp; Maybe test them with a few submissions.&nbsp; I realize one grader may see a 70, while another grader equally qualified may see it as a 69.&nbsp; Does anyone know if the 3PGr&#039;s pay any money to PNG, ANA, etc., to have their names listed on the rear of their slab?&nbsp; Can&#039;t be fee of charge.&nbsp; If they pay them for the right, that&#039;s no guarantee to us collectors. I have purchased raw coins at shows and from local dealers, and they tell me that the coins I purchased would be nice coins to have graded.&nbsp; I must admit they are beautiful coins.&nbsp; That&#039;s what attracted me to them.&nbsp; The coins seem to stand out from the other coins of the same type they had for sale.&nbsp; I am just not sure I trust 3PGr&#039;s.&nbsp; There is so much scamming, ripping-off and down right lying going on in everything else, I am not sure I will ever trust them.&nbsp; Just my opinion.&nbsp; There must be someone in one of these companies who has returned a 69 coin to a customer for the customer&#039;s submitted 70 coin.&nbsp; I can&#039;t believe it does not happen.&nbsp; I know they have a lot of money invested in their organizations, and they are not going to scam just little ole me, but again, how could you ever catch them?&nbsp; Getting off my soapbox now.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again thanks to everyone.&nbsp; Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
