What Tom and I are trying to explain is that it cannot be said that every single coin ever graded by ICG was hopelessly over-graded. There were a great many coins that they graded correctly. It's a baby and bathwater thing - yes the bathwater is bad and it must be thrown out. But you don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. In other words, don't refuse to look at or throw out every coin you see in an ICG holder. For if you do, you might just be passing up the best chance at a really good deal you ever had.
