[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 357036, member: 6370"]I agree with almost everything NPCoin has said so I dont have to say much. Kudos for a good laugh as you shine a little light on the jargon. As for the self-slab...I, at one time, decided I wanted to slab my own coins...for myself and because I thought it might safeguard them better. I decided not to because my coins are all different sizes and it would be a pain. I bought the slabs then thought differently of it. If I decided to continue (and I still have the slabs) and slab my coins, even estimate a grade...and then decided to sell them...there is nothing wrong with that...Real or implied. If someone thinks a slab is implying anything, thats them, they need to learn to read a listing and look at a photo. There is nothing at all wrong with self slabbing, the TPGs do not have a monopoly on the ability to put your coin away into a coffin. :) People can choose not to buy if they dont like it. A slab means nothing to me when it comes to grade or authenticity anyway...in the end they are all just collectors who are trying to make a buck off the hobby...grumble....grrr...grunt. :( Dont mean to be a negative Nelly. :)[/QUOTE]
