As I spend more money and time on our hobby I seem to be moving away from the European culture of raw coins so I wanted to share with you my exp of sending world coins to PCGS from the UK. First time about a calendar month to arrive in CA, second time two weeks, and my third submission 6 days. Now call me over analytical but does the US postal service and the anti terror apparatchicks maybe just get used to you doing something or is it all just coincidence that the more frequent the submission, the quicker it gets? Also, the PCGS returns did not arrive in the same way as all my other purchases from the US have. I usually have to go to the sorting depot in Crewe, Cheshire and pay a whacking great import duty. With PCGS my package arrived via some kind of courier and no import duty. Just need to develop some patience now as want my coins back before I go on holiday.....all the best, marbury518
Well, you can count on the dirtbags at homeland security to use a boroscope to look into many of your packages. I find about 30% of my packages and letters are opened or snooped by these retards.
I can't say why the serivce seems to be improving for you, but as long as it is, I don't think I'd worry about it. Chris
