[QUOTE="bonniview, post: 1815464, member: 38496"]I have several questions concerning grading and the possibility of notes (or a note) being sent in with the intent and prior knowledge knowing before hand it coming back graded higher then its actual real true grade. Within every enterprise or industry that makes money and is out for top profit there seems to always be someone that wants to capitalize and take advantage to misled a suspecting buyer or customer. Now to my questions.... Say hypothetically i have a note that would grade AU 50 or 55. With no folds or creases is it possible for that note to get graded New 60-64 by a grader who would have been asked from someone within the the currency industry so that note would bring more money? I know there have been threads about people doctoring notes for a higher grade but what about within the third party grading companies? Even if a collector exclusively buys from a pcda dealer how can one be sure that a rare top pop note didn't get over graded from a smaller unknown dealer that originally got it submitted....just to capitalize and gain a higher profit. Does anyone have any concerns or lack of trust in third party graders this will not happen?[/QUOTE]
