[QUOTE="Cherd, post: 8567219, member: 24754"]Ya, I actually just sent a couple in through a dealer for re-holdering . One had a chunk busted out of the edge during shipping (Thanks USPS!) and the other was in a thick holder for some reason (it was a thin As?). I didn't realize that the slab was fat until it arrived in the mail, and it wouldn't fit in my slab case. The price for re-holdering is pretty reasonable, but once the shipping, handling, and service charge per invoice fees get tacked on, the cost becomes considerable (In the price range where I shop anyway). Besides, I don't want to maintain membership fees just for that purpose. I've had bad experiences with buying raw coins and sending them in for grading myself, as I apparently have a good eye for picking out "Tooled" coins :inpain:. That being the case, I prefer to let other people deal with that process, and then buy the coins after the job is done.[/QUOTE]
