[QUOTE="treylxapi47, post: 1865775, member: 41863"]I sincerely hope all of you NGC and PCGS bandwagoneers stay out of my buying arena. I've picked some very choice, solid coins at a discount because I target some specific 'low tier slabs'. There is method to my madness and it has paid off well. As with anything you just have to be smart with what you are doing. In my personal opinion I view ALL coins the same way. PCGS, ANACS, PCI, and NGC, how can you not be skeptical about them all when we have dealers/members who make threads about the success they have at sending in coins for better grades and actually getting the grade. Almost always that is through PCGS and NGC. One of the more memorable ones was an older gold coin that was on the fence and body bagged like twice before it finally came back with a clean grade. All the slabs are to me are fancy holders and half guarantees that it's genuine if I can look it up and check the coin against the TPGs database. And for the record I am relatively 'new' at buying high end coins (less than 2 years) and haven't been burned yet, and I haven't bought a PCGS or NGC coin in quite some time. Why spend more money for a 'name' when I can have the same coins at a discount.[/QUOTE]
