[QUOTE="Morgan1878, post: 556503, member: 17869"]You bring up an interesting point..the fatigue factor. The video mentions 100,000 coins graded per month. How many coins is each grader expected to complete every day? If there are quotas and a grader is behind, does the pace of grading pick up? Would this affect the quality of grading? Do these guys really make 100k/year? Sounds on the high side. Are there better times of the week to get your coin graded? For instance, Monday morning might not be best time to have a coin graded. Maybe Friday would, generally folks are in a better frame of mind. Also, the video mentions that the graders don't know who the coins are from. Maybe so, but I don't know of too many businesses where larger customers don't receive some type of preferential treatment, whether it's in the pricing or getting ahead of someone else in the line. They could do this and still maintain the confidentiality to the grader of where the coin is from. I read somewhere else on this forum about situations where coins have been lost and/or coins that were returned from graders were not the same ones sent in. Anything to this or is it hearsay?[/QUOTE]
