<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stork, post: 2789080, member: 71642&quot;]A bit of a blanket statement.&nbsp; They are pretty clear on what/what not is covered.&nbsp; No issues at all with NGC, and generally satisfied with PCGS.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve had corrections made by both PCGS and NGC...done politely, quickly, and at no cost to me including shipping/insurance. There was not a financial aspect though as I had purchased the coins knowing the dates were messed up (Japanese dates mis-interpreted by the labeler--year number right but wrong Emperor resulting in an incorrect Gregorian calendar date) in a couple cases...and one labeled a PF instead of an MS, which it obviously was as there were no proofs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Except for the time PCGS disagreed with me as to a variety.&nbsp; They are still wrong, but oh well, they doubled down on being wrong at least and they weren&#039;t trying to make me pay.&nbsp; They are just misinformed--and the coin remains in the slab as a common variety when actually it&#039;s a rarer one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, I am not happy about two of theirs--one has a contaminant of some sort and the other a teensy bit of PVC.&nbsp; On looking at the True Views what I&#039;m looking at is clearly (if subtly) present...but the coins were not corrected/conserved when sent back under the guarantee.&nbsp; This is when a little communication would be helpful--like what I am taking for PVC is not, or what I think is a contamination is actually the metal.&nbsp; The coins were sent under a bigger dealer name so it&#039;s not me...and the coins were in the $400 range, so not a big financial outlay.&nbsp; I suspect they just flat out disagreed either had a problem...but I wish I knew why.</p><p><br /></p><p>BUT, PCGS has compensated very fairly me for a mis-slabbed coin when I was the third party buyer--granted they paid off in grading vouchers but it was a fair trade for the difference in value and they re-slabbed the coin correctly.&nbsp; It was in the neighborhood of $150 value difference.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have benefited from their guarantees, though some remain in disagreement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
