<p>[QUOTE="illini420, post: 1153640, member: 19423"]Up until this year, I would buy the $49.99/year subscription not just to get the pop reports but also to get the quarterly grading specials. I saw it as getting 4 gradings a year for $49.99 and I would usually use at least 3 of the 4 specials. I'd also use the pop reports pretty often. Sure, i could get the info free in the Registry, but it's so much quicker and easier to look at in the pop reports, especially for coins that aren't in a current set I have going. Also, you need to be a member to submit coins for crossover or variety attribution which I do from time to time.</p><p> </p><p>But now things are a bit different. I'm paying for CoinFacts now which really eliminates the need to have pop report access since the pop reports are part of CoinFacts. Also, the grading specials changed significantly starting with the first quarter of 2011 and are no longer freebies but instead are buy x and get 1 free... because of that, I'm done with the $49.99/yr membership once this current one expires and I'll rejoin when I have coins to submit or when the quarterly special is a good one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
