<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1305948, member: 13650"]Yes. I've complained about this before too. But I paid it. I had a gold $5 cross over from an old PCGS MS 60 slab to a new NGC slab and was upgraded to a 62. Should have been a 63. That was graded at the show. I dropped it off and picked it up the next morning re-slabbed. That cost $65 to get that one coin re-graded. That's no shipping and handling involved whatsoever. But, it's what I wanted and I'd do it again.

Can you imagine if they only charged $5 to slab a coin and you could send singles in? The tracking process they use as they go through the system is fairly extensive. It would add a lot more work to staffs that already seem to be a month behind at times. There'd be a huge influx of people sending it in one or two at a time and all would have to go through the process.
