NGC Submissions Question

Garfield2022

Will NGC accept submissions sent by USPS Priority Insured Mail or only by Registered Mail?

Walkerfan

Wouldn't that be a question for NGC?

Catbert

Shouldn't this be asked on the NGC boards vs the PCGS forum?

Yes, I send my submissions to NGC via USPS Priority Signature. No insurance because I self insure.

Probably but I was on this site and if you knew the answer wouldn't have been just as easy to answer the question than to flame my post. People seem to look for something to complain about than be helpful now days. So sad!

No, Because the PCGS forum IS the place to be

I'm sorry you're saddened. It just struck me as inappropriate to ask your question on PCGS's property. Then again, I'm old fashioned that way.

It would probably take about eight days to get the answer on the NGC forum.

Here, you get the right answer in about 8 seconds.

And under the circumstances, the question “Wouldn't that be a question for NGC?” seemed reasonable and like other than a “flame”.

Yes, I always send my submissions to them USPS Priority. Never had an issue.

However, I also agree that this is a question to put over at the NGC forums. You'd get the same answer in the same amount of time without ruffling feathers.

This forum is the number one source for expert advice on coins anywhere.

NGC should be sad the question is asked here. PCGS should be happy with the extra traffic and the fact the people come here first.

I think is OK to ask here since this forum is much active than NGC. Some people here might also want to know too.

You can send them by either way.

Have the grading services ever refused a shipment sent with expected salient information and things they grade?

If you read the prior posts, you'd know why.

Thank You--I appreciate your answer. I'll probably continue to post and ask questions as this is a neat forum and I just noticed it a few months ago. Lots of friendly people here too but I'll be especially careful not to mention XYZ company in further posts even though collectors and dealers often submit to more than one company. Some think one company grades stricter on some denominations etc. etc. Since this was a pretty active forum I knew someone would know the answer and didn't think it would ruffle the feathers of someone. I wasn't promoting XYZ or demeaning PCGS just had a curious question and asked away.

My feathers are quite unruffled for those who care. The challenge was one of etiquette not whether someone here could answer the question or whether there is high readership here.

Yet they say everyone has an opinion just like another physical feature, and so I offered one. That evidently ruffled the OP.

This is as dumb as when someone asks about a value and people say "buy a Grey Sheet". Just give an answer or pass. What are we, grade schoolers?

Hard pass except to say do your own homework possibly?
