[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1431895, member: 112"]They do have their inventory automated. But that doesn't solve the problem. What is needed, and needed not just for Heritage but for all dealers and sellers, is a quick and easy way to mark slabs for pricing. And that's what the labels do. There is no bar code reader need, there is no computer with a database or inventory needed, they just pick up the slab look at the label, and they can tell their customer how much that coin cost. You have to remember, most of this takes place at a coin show where time is of the essence. The technology you are advocating takes a great deal more time to use than the simple label does. And that's why they do it. And if peeling the labels off once you have bought a coin also peels a bit of the hologram off the slab - so what ? I mean what's the big deal ? Do you care more about the colored ink on the outside of the slab than you do the coin ? Did you buy the slab - or did you buy the coin ? What's more important to you ? I just don't get it.[/QUOTE]
