[QUOTE="TypeCoin971793, post: 2786399, member: 78244"]No one asked you to join the forum and constantly bash PCGS or belittle the knowledge of the members here. I don't like the graders either, but I am not ranting about how much of a SCAM they are. By the way, since you are criticising the education of members here, where did you get your education? But you probably won't answer that question, just like the questions about your supposed dealership. They have answered it. The answer is just not what you want to hear. You are paying for an opinion, and the coin, in their opinion, has an unnatural color. The look of a coin can tell a lot about its history, like how it was stored, what chemicals it was exposed to, the method of cleaning, etc. In what way is it unlawful? Their website clearly states that "Questionable Color" is a potential designation for coins that they feel have an unnatural color. If you still think it is unlawful, [B]shut up[/B] about willy-nilly calling PCGS a scam. Show and reference a specific legal document that outlines how PCGS is scamming its customers. If you cannot do this, than PCGS is operating within the law. That is exactly what is going on. You answered your own question. Stop crying. There is no way to be able to 100% verify the history of any coin. Any attempt would take way too much time and really jack up the grading costs. Also, a company like PCGS would not be able to trust any "history" of the coin submitted to them. It would be like blindly trusting a banker to verify that your car is in perfect working order. There would be serious trust issues.[/QUOTE]
