<p>[QUOTE="rrdavis, post: 17759, member: 1417"]Does anyone have any insight or experienced opinion in dealings with NTC? It seems to be a legit newbe in the grading game and I was not thrown by the rather conservative results in my initial submissions.( I sent a few de-slabed NCGS coins along with the raw to compare, 2 of 3 graded the same, 1 graded lower.) My concern lies more with the general distain for any new service, deserved or not. Their grading process seems structured to limit bias, they have been helpful and communicative with initial submission questions, and IMO they lean towards caution in an attempt to build a reputation as a serious service. That said, I've read some chat that suggests that the realm of credible grading belongs to a few, and in a business where reputation means everything, it's not too much of a stretch to imagine that the establishment isn't too keen on a competitively priced newcomer. On the other hand, I don't want to waste my resources on a unacknowledged or relatively disputable authority. Thanks for any informed response.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
