[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3440310, member: 112"]Ridiculous logic like that is apparently what makes you think the way you do. Grades in school are supposed to be based on averages, that is the way they are designed and intended. Grades on coins are not, grades on coins are supposed to be based on limiting factors because that is the way they were designed and intended to function from the very beginning of grading. And as was said above, if the TPGs wish to change their grading standards, it is entirely within their rights to do so. But they should at least have the guts to be honest about it, to stand up and say they did it - and not lie and pretend they never did it at all. Of course if they were honest about it, then the game they play and the reasons for it would be all too obvious. The thing that gets me is that they actually seem to think they are fooling somebody. But knowledgeable people have seen what they are doing since they started doing it. And today, pretty much everybody sees it. And the evidence of that is plainly visible in this thread and the many others like it ! The only ones who still refuse to admit it are the TPG fanboys, people who used to called Kool-Aid drinkers.
