@DocBenjamin, I’ve had this dilemma now of whether or not to open Mint sealed boxes for the better part of 25 years. Knowing that if some coins in some sets are exclusive only to that set along with other coins found outside of that set, the only way for the grading companies to know it came from the limited set is to not open it. That is the only way they will label it on their holder. Now with almost 100 unopened boxes, it’s gone past the point of no return. I can no longer financially have them all graded. So do I keep only the most expensive coins and sets in their sealed boxes and open the rest. Thankfully, I no longer purchase coins or sets from the Mint so the number is capped. This is a small portion of the boxes I own.
You win!
Re: Substandard customer service morphs into our host's @PCGS_Hy FTW
Entitled much? Go away - I'm pretty sure that without your $125 membership, the whole organization will fold up and disappear.
At a minimum, you get the responses you deserve. Try treating customer service staff like the people they are and you might get a better response.
Perhaps a senior CSR has many things on their plate, things that have been around longer or are higher priority than correcting an email address (and perhaps due to limitations in the systems is more complex than you imagine...)

I believe it's unfortunately a byproduct of the internet. Everywhere you go people argue for the sake of arguing. And they say things they would most likely never say to someone's face if the same discussion were to happen. I would love to do a video series of putting the same two people face-to-face for a discussion on the same topic to see what happens when you can't hide behind the computer screen.Exactly, people feel safe to hide behind the internet, and don't act the same as they would in person. I fall guilty to this myself at times, but it is best when we all act the same as in person.

Greg has admitted to being FRAZ, so that is one of them (no real secret).

@Cougar1978 said:
I think I know the answer but what is your definition, take?Are ALTS disliked, banned? Or simply trashed?
@Cougar1978 said:
Or would an ALT be like somebody in Moscow disliked by the regime?@Cougar1978 said:
Yes that’s correct dup accts are banned.Basically my question about somebody with no dup acct of course but possibly disliked by the ruling class of a blog.

When did I ever deserve have somebody frequently quote my posts? For now I am done with you. As far as quoting my posts - stay away.
I quoted all of your posts in this thread. This is helpful because we will still all get to see them after you delete them.
Re: What is an ALT in here?
I am lenient to alts only when it is a banned person who has repented of their wrongs, and even then, as soon as they start acting awful again, then they aught to be kicked again. Hence @Insider3 .
Re: 2025 Pro Football HOF Nominees
Apologies to GRP but even as a kid electric football wasn’t much fun. Hit the juice and you have 22 toy figures who look like they’re actually being electrocuted to death gyrating around spasmodically in all directions. If a player actually went forward it was a major victory. 🥳
