[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 401249, member: 705"]I disagree. Someone wants to have a set of Buffalo Nickels all graded VF....but they find that in todays market they are too $$$...so they start "over grading", "market grading" the coins to fit their terms. People want a set of Franklins with FBL but they can't find ones with both top and bottom lines full....as more and more people collect them with just the bottom lines full the market is calling that FBL. PCGS therefore goes along with Market Grading and grades those coins FBL...FOLLOWING the MARKET. And every collect is a "market manipulators". When I buy a coin I've just made a "market" for that coin. I for one disagree. Do a search here on CT for Market Grading. From your posts it sounds like you really don't understand Market Grading. Speedy NOTE: I know that this isn't exactly what the term Market Grading Stands for....but I feel that this is something that ties into the grading game and could also be called Market Grading.[/QUOTE]
