<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 729810, member: 3011&quot;]If the premise is true, and it probably is from the expert observations here, then over time the market prices for coins at a particular grade should drop closer to the price in the next lowest grade to adjust to the liberal grading.&nbsp; So many coins slabbed as, say, MS66 that deserve MS65 should begin to sell closer to MS65 prices.&nbsp; Maybe that&#039;s a small part of the reason why prices are dropping.&nbsp; People ARE buying the coin and not the slab. </p><p><br /></p><p>It is also an incredibly short-sighted business practice for TPGs to vary grading over time to match what they perceive as market conditions.&nbsp; All they have to sell is their expertise and consistency, and if either is doubted by the customer base, the brand name could suffer permanent damage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
