<p>[QUOTE="40_mila_kokkina, post: 3419118, member: 59115"]Seems the major grading services don't want to compete, maybe they know how flimsy their operations are nowadays and feel scared that they will lose their status, profits and market share. One thing I hate about companies is as they get too big and powerful, they also get arrogant and lazy and don't want to have competition given to them in the marketplace to create a better product. We cannot have a free marketplace if competitors are not allowed to compete by the large established companies using the legal system to create rules and regulations against them and colluding with other businesses to restrict access to the marketplace. It sort of reminds me what the U.S. did in creating the Petro-Dollar Standard, forcing trade of oil worldwide with U.S. Dollars only to keep the U.S. Dollar artificially strong. This is a racket and the numismatic field largely seems to have lowered itself to these abysmal practices.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
