    Since I have never sent a coin in for grading, not sure what it would be worse than. That does remind me, I need to check on the price of popcorn.

    @privatecoin and @lermish
    I think I'd rather wait for the coins than experience both of your answers...and I can get impatient at times.

    It's been a while since I sent any but at the time, I didn't think about it until the package came back in the mail.

    Over grading your coins before you sent them.

    ...because most things (not all) are worse than that.

    It's not as bad as waiting for your wife to come home from "Girls night out"

    As bad as...
    When your mother told you, when you were a little kid, "Wait, til your father comes home, buster!"

    ...the wait to have them loaded into the system? USPS tracking says my three orders arrived today but I'm sweating bullets until I see the orders in my account. Too many reports lately of stuff going missing....

    Waiting for grades in college after final exams, that was stressful.

  • leothelyonleothelyon Posts: 8,473 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Ya'all know the solution to all this.......send a coin in once a week and before you know it, you'll have a coin in the mail......every week. :astonished:

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

    Not to worry, I am a CAC member, once CAC starts to accept submissions from its collector members (about 3000 currently), I will likely get my coins back in a couple weeks. I can wait for that and have the coins in my hand until then.

    Best, SH

    Waiting for your coins back from grading is BETTER than waiting for delivery of your order, in the 1960's, from the Sears catalog that you placed. :D

    Waiting for the government to solve the problems they created.

    I have the patience of a saint.... I do not let such things bother me. When they show up in my mail box/front porch, I am surprised and happy. Worry is the price you pay on trouble that may not come. Cheers, RickO
