<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1586267, member: 4626&quot;]The few coins I submit for grading (more for the sake of preservation than because I care much what they&#039;ll grade) I do to ANACS which is actually reasonable driving distance from my house.&nbsp; They regularly come to the Aurora Coin Show which is held about once every two or three months or so, and that&#039;s an even more convenient way to submit them without having to take the time and money to package, ship, and insure them to ANACS when I can just hand deliver them in flips (which cost me about an average of 8 cents each).</p><p><br /></p><p>Since I rarely sell my coins the fact that ANACS is the cheapest and most convenient TPG for me trumps any consideration for how marketable my coins will be in their holders.&nbsp; I just want a relatively affordable way to conveniently store and preserve the coins I own valuable enough to be worth slabbing.&nbsp; What they sell for in the future will be my heirs&#039; problem lol...</p><p><br /></p><p>Plus well it gives me reason to go see the coin show.&nbsp; It isn&#039;t very big, and the same dozen or so dealers usually come every time, but it&#039;s a way to shop around for interesting impulse items that don&#039;t show up often, or at all, at the coin shop I otherwise go to, and it&#039;s a lot more pleasant than trying to shop for coins online (which I dislike and avoid whenever I can.&nbsp; I prefer seeing close up what I will buy, especially if it&#039;s a significant outlay of money.).&nbsp; The dealers usually pick out the merchandise they think will sell well but also have a handful of old bargain stock that can have a few interesting things in it too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
