<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hotpocket, post: 1932686, member: 44182&quot;]I would like to ask for help/recommendations on the following situation.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I recently purchased a Proof coin from a reputable dealer; it was specifically sold to me as a Proof version of the coin.&nbsp; However, I submitted the coin to NGC for grading and the coin came back as mint state MS63, not Proof.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Here are my questions:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) should I re-submit to NGC for re-grading if I think they made a mistake? Is there a different process for reviewing re-grades (in other words if Person A graded it the first time, do they ensure Persons B and C look at it on re-grade)?&nbsp; How likely is it that they would change their position? (and no, I am not holding my breath - but if you have had experience with regrades, I would like to hear it).</p><p><br /></p><p>2) should I just ask for a refund from the dealer? And if so, is it reasonable to ask him to compensate me for the grading fees as well?&nbsp; Never been in this position, so not sure what protocol is.&nbsp; I believe he sold it to me in good faith and did not intentionally try to deceive me.&nbsp; But if he only refunds the price of the coin and not the grading fees (not to mention the shipping), not sure that is fair...</p><p><br /></p><p>Its only a $100 coin, so I am not losing sleep over it.&nbsp; Its more the principle that if the coin was sold to me as a Proof, it should be a Proof.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thoughts? Suggestions?&nbsp; Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
