Message:: [QUOTE="Insider, post: 2620810, member: 24314"][USER=15062]@davidh[/USER] Your statement that "Grading is BS" is hilariously funny and has some merit.  As I started through it, I spit soup all over my keyboard.  Unfortunately, IMHO portions of it come off as a <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie23" alt=":bigtears:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />rant! Perhaps, for the benefit of all of us here, you could take your contentions and enlighten all of us as it should lead to an interesting discussion rather that a lot of questions.  For example: 1. On which coins don't fingerprints matter? 2. Where did you learn how many coins are graded each day? 3. On which coins don't bag marks matter? 4. What do you base your statement about cleaning on? 5. HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN COLLECTING?  ARE YOU A DEALER?  HOW MANY MAJOR SHOWS DO YOU ATTEND A YEAR? HOW MANY COINS DO YOU SEND IN FOR GRADING A MONTH? 6. Etc.  My soup is getting cold! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> An answer to questions like this would go a long way to add "weight" to your post.
