[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 1283477, member: 4920"]They're not counterclaims, Conder101, because these named defendants were never served. That's the whole reason the complaint had to be dismissed out on the court's own motion under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m). I think it might be productive at this point were we to turn our attention to the fact of how easy it is to make allegations. PCGS made these allegations in a federal complaint. Then, they neglected to serve the complaint. Then, the court had enough of them, and dismissed the complaint out on it's own motion. In the meantime, PCGS got yards of headlines, without even so much as having attempted to prove one, single allegation. One might draw from that that this whole fiasco was more for the PCGS forum members and the big dealers over there who continue to feed off them than it was to litigate any meritorious allegations. I'll tell you one thing. I have dealers, as well as a member, here, through whom I've submitted coins I wanted to market to PCGS. After this display of how they conduct themselves, I'm finished with that. That's just my choice. Your position may vary, and that's OK by me.
