<p>[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 2441412, member: 46237"]I don't find it hard to believe that this is perfectly legal, however, Mr. Briggs should obviously post a disclaimer on the SEGS website stating the cutoff for the guarantee along with pictures of how to identify slabs that do not carry the guarantee. Also, common sense dictates that he should inform any customers when the coin they sent in is no longer guaranteed <i>before</i> he cracks the coin out. Better yet, he could require a signed acknowledgement form to this effect as part of the submission.</p><p><br /></p><p>Taking a customer's coin sent in for regrade that doesn't have the guarantee and cracking it out seems like a really bad idea, if for no other reason than the potential to severely anger (and likely lose) a customer, and the resulting bad PR. What did he think, that the customer just wanted to pay him to downgrade the coin? While I consider what the OP did to be a bit shady, I also feel like this situation would have been easily avoided if a little common sense had been applied.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
