Back in 1995 or 1996 and associate of mine and I were taken on an after hours tour of PCGS by Mitch Spivack. I'm just curious how many posters here have been inside PCGS?

Great question. Looking forward to a behind the scenes look
Furthest I got was into a moderator's head, yet not one foot in the building.
Isn't the building next door to Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin?
I have not seen comments here on the forum over the years by anyone who was in the facility. I may have missed it, but I would think it would be a popular thread. Cheers, RickO
I got a backstage tour at a FUN show many years ago.
I saw David Hall walking around and asked him to autograph my book. He said come meet the team, and get everyone’s autograph!
So he escorted me “behind the curtains “ literally, gave a brief explanation of the process, and a few other guys signed the book as well.
Wow...0 out of 249 so far. I guess it's quite a rare thing to have happen. Too bad. It certainly makes one see TPG through a different lens.
Nope, not I. I suspect that unless you are on their payroll, you will not be viewing anything important.

I'd be afraid to with their current turn around times. 😆

You might have to wait 60 working days to leave.

If you do get to tour PCGS, do you check in the corners of the room, quickly look under the rug, or reach deep under the seat cushions?
I can neither confirm nor deny. RGDS!
Sure would be cool to see the cricket slabbing area of the building!

I haven't. But like the Mint, I'd head straight to the dumpsters at the back loading dock!

Still nobody. Man, don't I feel special!
Some great comments.
Mitch was on the payroll....you'd have lost that bet!

You're assuming you'd be able to see the corners, rugs or seat cushions.

My package is the one with all the dust.
