[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2849502, member: 112"]I do understand. And yes, those who don't have the knowledge yet are better off with the TPGs than they would be without them. I don't dispute that at all. But my perspective and my feelings are driven by the entire history of it all; and by what the TPGs are doing to people who do not have the knowledge to even recognize what they are doing. You see they can't hurt me at all, I quit collecting coins over 10 years ago. My concerns are solely for you guys - not me. There was a time when I was arguably one of the TPGs biggest fans. But that was when they graded coins correctly and accurately, and fairly consistently. It was only when they began changing everything for their own monetary benefit that I became a detractor instead of the supporter that I always had been. And make no mistake, I have no problem with them making money, that is the purpose of any business. What I have a problem with is them lying to do so. My goal now is, and has been for a long time, the dissemination of knowledge so that those who do not know, can know, and at the least be made aware of what is going on and thus be able to make better informed decisions. Short and sweet, my goal is to help people like you.[/QUOTE]
