[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1318161, member: 112"]I do not disagree Mark. Any or all of those things can be and often are true. But by the same token it cannot be denied that what I said - about one 65 being nicer than another 65 and thus selling for more - is true either. When it comes right down to it, there can be several reasons for a given selling for more. But the thing is, which of those reasons are valid and which are not ? The difference between sight seen and sight unseen bids is a very valid reason. The difference between one 65 being nicer than another 65 is a very valid reason. The PCGS set registry ? I don't see that as a valid reason but some will argue that it is. Perceptions among bidders ? That I do not see as a valid reason, that is buying the plastic. And that is the primary subject of this thread is it not - that PCGS is better ? That is what more people point to than any other thing as being why PCGS coins sell for more. And they completely ignore all of the other, valid, reasons. That's all I was trying to point out.[/QUOTE]
