<p>[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2491072, member: 24314"]COMMON KNOWLEDGE! It depends on the coins and the customer too. I have not heard as low as $5 as that is too close to the TPGS cost for parts, time, wages. I have heard of $6-$7. Look, I believe ANYONE can get $10 Show grading at ANACS or ICG. So dealers should get "something" at NGC or PCGS even though their overhead is much larger. I've even heard from reliable sources that sometimes they don't even pay for coins that don't meet the minimum grade as long as most coins in the order do. Dealers are weasels (aren't we all). I've been at a grading table at a big show when a customer wants a price for 200 coins. When he was given a price, he said XXX offered to do it for X. It comes with the territory. Why pay more than you need to as it cuts the profit.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I were a TPGS I would get all of us to stop cutting rates to get more coins and hold firm - no deals.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
