<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coppermania, post: 1225948, member: 18304&quot;]Look, if you don&#039;t like coins in slabs, where are you buying quality coins from? Raw eBay? No Heritage, Teletrade, Stacks Bowers, Most Goldberg lots, etc. Shows? Think all those dealers let one gradable slip buy? Fat chance. By now, most coins not slabbed are problem coins, or have been put back a long time which is rarer all the time and they get graded right away when they surface. When I see a raw coin I think &quot;ok, where is the problem&quot; and if there isn&#039;t one it probably is a low value item. Go ahead and crack &#039;em out to put in a Dansco and the next potential buyer will surely think the same. Submitting directly to ANY TPG is a painful experience as several have outlined. If that process is aggravating to you, just buy them slabbed already and let someone else do the bleeding. There are plenty of them out there. I feel sometimes that the premium that comes with slabbed coins is because somebody had to go through that painful process and expense and is passing that onto the final user. Still just my opinion and just sharing a strategy that works for me. M[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
