[QUOTE="muhfff, post: 26016697, member: 71559"]The long waiting times are probably also caused by a lack of workforce. NGC is constantly looking for graders, but it doesn't seem to be an easy task. The best graders are usually coin collectors or coin dealers, but (according to my understanding) as soon as one becomes a grader, they face restrictions to avoid conflicts of interest. This significantly limits the number of people who are both willing and qualified to grade coins for any TPG. As a result, graders are a limited resource, and all grading services are competing for these few individuals. I wouldn't be surprised if the newcomer CACG hired some graders away from NGC and PCGS. Maybe the NGC should try to find graders outside USA. The CCG opened PMG paper money grading center in Europe, maybe they should consider the same for NGC also.[/QUOTE]
