I will not and HAVE NOT ever cast aspersions at any grader, because I have no idea who ANY of them are ... at ANY firm,... ever. And I don't care, either. The people are not at issue, at least in the individual sense. What's at issue is the work produced. And I have no confidence W-H-A-T-S-O-E-V-E-R in what is printed on the label of ANY slab from modern-day ANACS (VAM attribution exception), PCI (of ANY vintage whatsoever), ICG since about 10 or so years ago, or any of the assorted alphabet soup slabs out there. Even the worst team in baseball has one All-Star. Broken clock, etc. Pick your own favorite old saw. The work speaks for itself, and what I'm saying is I think I'm better by far than any slab outside of PCGS and NGC. AND STOP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH I NEVER SAID!!!!!! Never mentioned any gradER, because I don't give a darn WHO they are. Just like the laws I have personally written. Only the work matters, not my autograph.
