<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mark Feld, post: 729585, member: 11467&quot;]A resubmission makes sense if the estimated probability of the upgrade, multiplied by the added value of the upgrade is greater than the grading fee and postage. So, if a coin is valued at $100 at its current grade and (only) $200 at the next grade up, if the grading fee and postage amounts to $35, I&#039;d have to feel fairly confident that it would upgrade, in order to consider trying it. On the other hand, if the spread went from $100 to $1000, instead, I wouldn&#039;t need to feel nearly as confident about the chances for an upgrade, in order to try it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That said, I see many submitters get big eyes for a resubmission offering&nbsp; large score potential. But at the same time, they seem blind to the reality that based on its actual merits, the coin stands no realistic chance of an up-grade. The reality is that it doesn&#039;t matter how huge the upside is if it&#039;s not going to be realized. And all the while, the grading/re-submission fees are wasted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
