<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 9528, member: 112&quot;]The bottom line is this - the endorsements are nothing but a marketing ploy. They always have been. This is something I would like to see change. </p><p><br /></p><p>Take any endorsement - the UL of Underwriters Labortories or the GH of Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. Do you think the companies that receive these get them for free ? These endorsements are only given to products and companies that pay BIG bucks for testing in order to get these endorsements.</p><p><br /></p><p>What I would like to see is for these organizations - the PNG and ANA - to provide their endorsements to any grading company that meets a certain set of standards - not who writes the biggest check. Don&#039;t get me wrong - I have no problem with paying for the endorsement. For confirming that the grading company follows a set of standards cost money. And this would be required if my idea came to pass. It would be but one part of a series of reforms I would like to see in the grading industry.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
