[QUOTE="Ed Zak, post: 33727, member: 824"]That's what I am talking about! I have bought some slabs at shows that were overgraded in my opinion, but I figured, "What the heck?...I'll just send them in to somebody like PCGS and if they grade them down to MS65 (which is what I thought the coin should be) instead of MS67 from the lower-tier service, based on what I paid for it, I will [U]still[/U] be ahead (alot) and will have a coin that is more marketable than the other slab company. I always felt that there was an arrogance factor as you suggested that the top grading companies would look down upon other services and don't crossover to even minimum grades 2 to 4 points lower, because they are crossing from the "junk" companies. I'll guess I will have to hold my breath and carefully break out some of my proofs that I believe will grade better RAW versus if they were in their current low-tiered holder. Some I will keep and the others I plan to sell so I can apply the dollars to other coins I want.[/QUOTE]
