<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1067159, member: 15199"]I am not sure when the next ANA grading or authenticity seminar is, but for those who dislike TPG so much, why not put the money up to attend those? In today's culture, so many want their rewards NOW! I hope they also go to club meetings and pay attention and ask why certain grades are given. I guess many hope that someday they will have a game slot in their forehead and can plug in a "GDJMSP's Grading and Authenticity Module" to shop on ebay or at a show. Knowledge usually comes slowly and/or expensive, and emotions over coins or TPG will not improve one's knowledge or ability of grading. I use TPGs on some coins, but I test myself on each submission by photographing them and grading them myself for later comparison. </p><p><br /></p><p>I really don't understand why there is so much emotion on the subject as everyone has the personal choice to use them or not, and there are many greater perceived injustices in the world. If you really have a problem with the way the company is run, buy a few shares and make yourself heard at the annual meetings. IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
