[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 318611, member: 4626"]Therein lies the problem. The way I see it you are paying for [I]two[/I] services, not just [I]one[/I]: 1. Examine the coin and give an opinion as to its grade. 2. Place the coin in a tamper-proof slab with that grade shown on it. If I pay for both of this services and they only provide one, I firmly believe they at least owe me a partial refund for not having performed the second one. It clearly costs them money and time to put the coin in the slab, and they have to make up that cost by passing it on to the customers. If they don't have to spend the time and materials to put it in a slab, they are saving money on what the complete service costs that to perform. I see it as both logical and ethical to pass that savings back to the customers, else they're in effect charging you for a service not performed. There's a word for that. It's called [I]fraud[/I].[/QUOTE]
