Re: Rose Rookie Received a Silver Diamond...Read Short Story About this Card Near Bottom of Thread
Allow me to make an observation: Beautiful vintage cards are drying up. Not many are left to be analyzed anymore. The best of the best is owned. Stored. Locked up and kept. Some of us who post here can testify to that quite easily. So, whatever is allowed to be seen and assigned a grade or endorsement will be given the very best possible scrutiny. The owners of such cards should feel pretty comfortable with the bumps in value by assessment from a third party. It makes sense right now to be aware of opportunities to make a card more attractive for the next person who's someday willing to pay up. And upwards.
Re: Seated half dollar sale
More than one person wanted it. If a coin you need is found at auction and it truly fills all of your requirements for a collection, the sky may be the limit.

10,000 available this morning gone in less the 10 seconds.Not bots. This was planned to filter out flippers and allow big quantities to their better customers. This type of activity is done with a purpose. No rules. No regulation . Do whatever you can get away with .
If it was being done for a fair reason it would be clearly stated. What you don’t know will definitely hurt you.Nonsense.
If they wanted to sell them to their better customers, they simply would sell them. No one would know. It would be ludicrous to pretend to make them available and direct them to certain parties.
Unless they have to load them into the system in order to be able to sell them. To anyone.
It's worth keeping in mind that that "ATS" html code is not really meant for public consumption. It's not like they are advertising them or anything.
If 10,000 were being sold, 99 at a time, one would think someone on here would be able to complete a purchase. What @HATTRICK suggests actually makes more sense.
The 10K are in the system, and are immediately directed where they are meant to go, with no HHL. Few if any actually hit the web. Which is why no one can complete a purchase, even though 10K are ostensibly available for purchase.
Whatever. You don't see me screaming about it now, because the Mint can indeed do whatever it wants. And, after the first 24 hours, with the HHL lifted, they don't actually owe anyone anything if this is how they want to distribute them.
Re: Incredibly frustrated with PCGS
I think those who now own PCGS realize it is the 800-lb gorilla in the room and, therefore, they can do what they want in terms of staffing levels and customer service since folks will keep coming back regardless.
