Well, not really, but that's sort of how I felt. I've been a member of PCGS for almost 20 years now and never knew they had a Problem Order Desk which is where my call was directed to. No big deal, it was a entry error on my part that needs to be cleared up and the polite young woman, the Principal, took care of things.
All the same, after I got off the phone and read the accompanying e-mail all I could hear in my head was Bon Scott and "Problem Child." I used to play it and sing it to my boys when they were young.

I had the same problem desk issue earlier this year. First time for me. It was not clear to them how I wanted to handle GSA items on my submission. Took several emails and one call to get everything confirmed. A bit more cumbersome a process than I think is needed, though.

one time i either messed up a check or forgot it entirely and was informed that my coins would be held indefinitely until payment was rendered, rather politely though. needless to say i got payment out post-haste!
that was a time when i usually received grades on my order page before the check even cleared. now we are at my check clears before i even get coins in the mail . - i don't know how they pull it off but they are THAT GOOD!

I've only been reprimanded once several years ago. I forgot to put the minimum grade on a bulk submission of Morgan Dollars.
At least you did not get detention Al... ... For detention, they hold your coins after grading and no grades until complete. Cheers, RickO

Oh, I thought perhaps you had a stern talking to from the PCGS moderators for something you posted.
On a somewhat related note......back in my day, being sent to the Principal's office, meant you were going to get the strap!!
I came close in Grade 1, as my pal and I were acting up in class. He got the strap, I luckily avoided it.
