<p>[QUOTE="KSorbo, post: 2998091, member: 56370"]Good points. However, I very much doubt that they have their process set up to let graders making 6 figures sit around waiting for the slab machine backlog to clear. According to the tracking on the NGC website, grading and slabbing are considered a single operation, and my order cleared that phase in a few days. If coins were piling up at the slab machine after grading then I would think that my order would have spent more time there.</p><p><br /></p><p>I completely agree with your statements about the economy tier. If they made their process so fast that everyone’s orders cleared quickly, they would be leaving a lot of money on the table because then people would just switch to the cheaper tiers. So they have an interest in keeping it slow.</p><p><br /></p><p>My last job was in a large machine shop that practiced constraint management so this is an interesting topic for me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
