Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1227131, member: 112"]WingedLiberty - What you have written about here has been written about more times, and by more people than you can count. And none of it is anything new. The same theories and claims have been around since the companies opened their doors. However, as one's knowledge and experience with coins and the grading companies grows over the years you come to realize that it's all a bunch of nonsense that has no merit whatsoever. The simple truth is, and it's already been stated, that no one TPG is stricter or tougher across the board than the other. With some coins NGC is tougher, with others PCGS is tougher. And it's also quite true that coins still in the competitors slab have been up-graded and down-graded by each of the other companies. For that matter, both NGC and PCGS, have up-graded coins that were previously in ANACS slabs, ICG slabs, PCI slabs, SEGS slabs, etc. People with experience and knowledge know this, have known it for years. It's nothing new. So you, and anybody else, can come up with all the theories you want. And I have no doubt that they will continue to do so. But the truth is what I have written above. Many will choose to not believe it. But that's the nice thing about the truth, it's still the truth even when somebody chooses not to believe it.[/QUOTE]
