<p>[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 616560, member: 307"]Doug, If they don't loosen up their standards, then there won't be any upgrades for people to re-submit. I have said for about a year now that the TPGs have just about run their course. People are starting (once again, thank God) to grade and evaluate for themselves. Maybe for a while the TPGs helped illustrate what was a good coin for the grade, but not so much anymore. Now they just need more submissions. That's why the whole green and gold sticker phenomenon, because people are starting to become leary of the TPGs grade (as they should have all along).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
