[QUOTE="wcoins, post: 1861518, member: 32035"]I have no idea what percentage of coins submitted are non-gradable but I am going to assume 15% is a good number. If for those 15%, they have someone spend 1 minute looking at them, put a sticker that explains why is non-gradable, then pass it on to be returned. I think a good grader would spot a bad coin in a matter of seconds to a minute. [B]1[/B]. I don't see how that's a bad thing. From the new submissions, most will be gradable thus they'll make money. If now for every 100 coins, 85 are good and 15 bad, they get a fee for 100; if they don't charge for bad coins, or [B]charge less,[/B] I expect the number submitted to increase, it'll no longer be just 100. How much will it increase, [U]that's the question[/U]. If it goes to 150, and 15 percent are bad coins, 128 coins are good up from 100. You might be right though that more people would submit bad coins, so the 128 might go lower. Stiil, they'll have for 2 way shipping and insurance (even a fee, but not as much as a problem free coin), I don't think people will send bad coins hoping to fool the TPG. [B]2[/B]. They could add a sticker or other method. [B]3[/B]. I don't see why that would happen. This is just an idea, of course a lot of research is needed. Another idea would be to charge less for "problem coins". It's all about the percentage in the beginning of my post. I think most of ct members here would submit their coins to a company that won't charge or charge less for problem coins. The company will get a lot more business, but it's all about profit not turnover. It's risky but I wouldn't say from start it's a bad idea. Whoever does this it'll have the customer base, then you can work with the numbers. The competiton in this market is non-existent, I think they're happy the way it is. they don't need changes. That's why this probably will never happen.[/QUOTE]
